I spotted a svb entry point on my 1350 right @ where there the stem meets the vine. I probed it and it was very shallow. Figured he got a taste of my systemic insecticide and "buged" off.
Turns out he didn't. I noticed some splitting and more sawdust today so I cut the main away inch by inch till I got him. The larva were in the main about 1/2" from the stem. Thankfully not on the stump side.
Btw, this fruit has doubled in size since the stem split and is one of my best. Also, this fruit is a beautiful orange. I didn't know the 1350 produced this colour.
