- Intervention effect Soil water deficit reduced midday stem water potential, stomatal conductance and net photosynthesis.
- Observation Branch maximum daily shrinkage responded rapidly to irrigation changes before and after harvest.
- Intervention effect SDI gave the lowest stem water potential before harvest.
- Intervention effect RDI gave the lowest stem water potential after harvest.
- Intervention effect FRM gave the lowest stem water potential after harvest.
- Observation RDI stem water potential stayed above −1.6 MPa in every season.
- Observation FRM stem water potential fell below −1.8 MPa in 2017.
- Intervention effect RDI reduced vegetative growth.
- Intervention effect SDI tended toward smaller fruits.
- Intervention effect SDI tended toward slightly higher soluble solids.
- Intervention effect Post-harvest deficit irrigation increased water productivity.
