i should know this i have grew long enuff but always had plenty of babies so never really payed attention my problem this year is small plants and later pollenations i have one plant that is just now throwing babies on the main and i can not remember how long it takes for a tiny fruit showing in the tip to be ready i know how to tell when its ready just never payed attention to this yound of a fruit im just trying to get a good guess as to when it will be im going to take some time off of work to stay close due to the heat to help keep plants misted and ice packs fresh to help keep things cool in this heat other 2 plants are throwing small fruit about every 2 feet

Normally 7-8 days from vineball to blooming but in the heat we are going to have its different. When its extremely hot it could be 5-6 days

This isn't exactly what your asking, but I pollinated one on Thursday, one on Saturday, one tuesday, and likely another one this coming Thursday. They are all on the main vine and leaving me with alot of choices. Never had them come one after another so fast. Good luck. P.s do you really take time off work for pollinating?? Your a die hard grower!!!

6-10 days depending on temps and genetics. I had a 10 day situation open in 8 with upper 90's.How deep are you digging into that tip to look for babies.theres three days difference from outside to inside- if you know what I mean
