It is hard to tell the difference between slight cold damage, and Cigar end rot in this case. Keep the developing fruit dry. Sometimes a plastic cover creates more problems with condensation than it helps.

Cold and wet does seem to promote the rot when the pathogen is present.

This bunch is shaded and with all the rain and low temps they aren't looking to good.

Fusarium is a fungus in the soil, not on the fruit. Its hard to tell if the fruit is being affected by a pathogen or by something else. Not much you can do at this point but let it be and see how it turns out.

I had a lot of trouble with cigar end rot on Dwarf Cavendish back at my old place. I would spend time "deflowering" each fruit because it was supposed to help prevent cigar end rot. Cold will also cause similar blemishes.

@Gabe15 DOH!

thats right it infects the roots NOT THE FRUIT!
