Ok, it’s time for the monthly TT mater report. At the moment, the TT mater is the only one we have that is still green and alive. One benefit to having it in a bucket is that you can move it around to where it’s happiest. Right now it is out in one of the shade houses under 60% shade and doing fine. Even under shade it still has to be watered every other day or it just wilts big time in this heat. It is still blooming pretty regular but still hasn’t set any fruit because of the heat.

I’m thinking if it can survive Aug. & Sept. it might be our best fall producer since it will already be a nice size and should set fruit all over once the nighttime temps get down to 65 & 70 degrees. It will also depend on weather or not the limbs can support a heavy load of fruit without breaking.
