So, would you suggest to cut a late DAP fruit off the vine rather than leave it on? Or what age of fruit do you consider to be the maximum achievable before it starts losing?

That is interesting stuff. How much weight loss are you talking about?

Yeah, I was going to chime in but didn't. I've reweighed a few pumpkins over the years after they were picked. It is a very consistent loss of around 10-15 pounds per WEEK from evaporative loss.
What you're measuring is completely different.
