1185 at 17' was pollinated this morning with 8 male flowers from the 1385 and was a nice 4 lober. nice cool day and hope she takes. another chance on the 1185 at 21' in about 5 days. the 1385 at 20' was selfed and once again a real screwey looking blossum. one segment was super huge and fused with another and the others were scrambled bad. so it is looking more and more like the 13' is the one if she continues at the pace she is at. 19.5" tonight on day 7 and my guess she will come in at over 25" on day 10 and maybe closer to 30" depending on how this cool weather treats her.
the last chance female on the 1161 looks like it will be pollinated thurs. which is predicted at a high of 80. nice. she still has a nice shine and color to her and this is the longest stem i have seen so far on the 1161 blossums so maybe all was meant to be. ya never know, but i haven't been this nervous about getting a set on a plants main in a long time. fingers crossed.
