This is what I've seen so fat this year with our cooler than average temps here in Charlotte NC.
To start, they are tiny and small I know and they have a long way to go but my Heirlooms like Cherokee Purple, KBX, Shannon's, Wes, and Indian Stripe all have set fruit on the first set of flowers!! Usually, for me anyway, I don't get good fruit set on the first set due to blossom drop. I wonder if the cooler temps helped keep the flowers on! Just an observation. Just very happy with the fruit set so far! Also, as usual, Big Beef is leading the way with 7 or so little babies on her! Bolseno is a close second! Glad to have her back this year. Greg |
