Pollinated the 1303 at 15' with 3 1303 males. Thankfully I got fooled by the 1723 and she is waiting another day to open. The plant has had only 2 males make it to past the half way point of development before dying out. None have made it to maturity and opened. I am hoping it ain't sterile as the female at 9.5 made it 5 days and then stopped. That females blossom was normal, but it was one of those crimped sideways pointing petal tops. I uncrimped them myself the day of pollination like I have had to do in that scenario before. The one that is gonna open tomorrow looks normal on the outside with straight up tall petals. Not sure if this makes a difference, but symmetry in nature is usually a good thing. Really hoping the one on the 1723 takes. I do not think and hope it is a sterile plant. With the recent males making it further in the development than the earlier ones, I think she is straightening out. I believe the 3 18 18 in recent foliar helped and will hit her again with some to hopefully get her a kin. I will have another try at 19' and now more females on all secodaries. The 1647 female in tip will fall about 17 or 18. A good lesson not to whack secondaries or leaves around females until the set is for certain. I am glad I left them alone and was gonna set up the 4 day old 1303 with mill fabric and whack the leaf and secondary but will wait a few more days like past day 8 or 9 and do more than 1 or 2 inch circ per day.
