There was a post here a while ago which discussed temps and impact on nanna's. As I remember 50 and below sent them into deep slumber, for like a month. But how long they needed to be at that temp, do not remember - nor even if it was actually 50, or maybe a bit over? I am going to be on the safe side and hold out until night temps are reliably above 55 - which means averages closer to 58 or 60. I have had very good fruiting in years past, but unfortunately did not keep records of when I exposed them to the elements (not to mention that they were always planted in the earth - not in pots - now i have both, so am especially interested in the potted material as I have more control over that.
Anyway, check out archives and I would guess you will find the article. I will look soon :-), but still have a couple of weeks before I dump them out.
