Default Re: Blue Java: Predicted cold weather tonight, should I cut fruit?

I would try bagging them and putting a small wattage bulb (carefully) inside to keep the temp in the bag above freezing. Probably 40-50 watts would be enough. Take care not to make contact with the bag. Or maybe wrap an electric blanket around them. Think outside the box a little.

I doubt they have had enough time to mature, so rthey should stay on an be protected in the "tree". Even if the leaves get toasted, being connected to the corm gives the best chance of success.
