Yep…went out and checked mine and they seem just fine although they seem to me like they’re a bit paler in color. Not sure about that. I grasp one tightly in my hand and it was still real cold inside. I squeezed them hard and like Alan says, they also seem firm as before.
I had looked into the sugar as an antifreeze thing yesterday after posting. I sorta thought I remembered something about that. I did not find just how much prevention it offers though. For me though, there has to be something more to it. What could it be? Watermelon for example would have been totally destroyed here last night.
Maybe some cellular tissue has more elasticity than others, but then I would think fruit with that attribute would be less firm.
Whatever the reason, it looks like they’ll be fine…glad for that.
BTW…they’ve been yellow/gold for some time, actually they really haven’t changed in appearance for well over a month. I think I’ll probably pick them before the next freeze.
