Because temperatures climbed consistently, we harvested all fruit.Sunny and very hot days. Daily temperatures ranged between 15°C - 40°C. Overnight temperatures ranged between 12°C - 15°C.
Good numbers harvested.
Fruit is looking very good.
Because temperatures climbed consistently, we harvested all fruit at the “breaker” colour stage to avoid fruit reaching full colour and becoming soft. We also picked our 3rd planting for the 1st time, where our pads and fans are located and although outside temperatures reached above 40°C, internal temperatures where at 28°C, therefore avoiding any issues.
