day 65 on the 980 fredricks. The heat is taking it's toll. We have had temps at 100 or high 90's for 90% of the last 30 days. It's just been too hot. Fruit has finally slowed way down. Hoping we ca neak out some small lbs for another couple weeks, but I think 1200 estimation won't happen. If we would have had some luck with the weather, it would have gotten bigger I believe. Looking at our options for when to weigh this thing, pros and cons for the weigh off it late october. I will discuss with vince, but my gut tells me to weigh the fruit around the 1st of october with all of our rot issues, and store it somewhere, hoping it lasts until the weigh off. It would loose a lot of weight, but atleast we get an accurate weighing of the fruit. Time will tell.
