Looking for input on additional excessive heat protection during pollination and rapid fruit growth. I am trying a 30% shade cloth over my Domingo plants. Any additional ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

Compost especially light colored straw will reflect a lot of heat or even just keeping the soil loose might help dissipate heat.
