Cool temperatures ('Orient Express' or 'Elondo'). Raise bed’s soil temperature by setting plants in black plastic mulch. Protect plants from cold. Cover with a floating row fabric. Remove fabric once honeybees start foraging so plants can be pollinated and when daytime temperatures are over 85°. Flowers drop at 90°. Fertilize monthly with 5-10-5. Avoid excessive sidedressings with nitrogen.
