Day12   January23rd Not all the potential fruits grow to maturity.  Some of them rot on the stem like this one. I have heard it is because they were not fertilised.  There is a lot of luck involved.  First the female flowers have to bloom on the same day as male flowers. If that happens then the bees need to be around to do the pollen carrying. This often doesn't happen if it is rainy.
