Not sure what day this is for the 1803 Hoelke x 2145 McMullen. I have to check my notes. This is my favorite shape, like a football and looks to he an orange one.

Crazy hot 7 days just wrapped up. I have leaf scorch on most vines facing south. We got no rain at all and with temps in the high 90's and a range of 105-115 F with humidity for that 7 days I would have expected a storm or three. They all missed. I should have taken down my black wind fence as I think it caused more burn by holding back a breeze and heating the area around the fence. Just figured there would be a storm.

Anyway, I lost one pollination of the 2145 so I'm back a week or so on that plant. It looks like the 1803 and 1572 held onto their fruit.

I've never seen a week like that.
