All in on the main at about 15'. No other females on the main have shown up yet and it is getting late. There are females on most of the secondaries so that is comforting...now I really know why my plants are under-performing in flowering this year...from today's newspaper;

"June rainfall in Vancouver totalled 3.25 inches - 40% more than average - while sunshine was significantly down at 157 hours - a whopping 68% under the average. We were 72 hours short of the average amount of sun, that is the equivilant to 6 fewer days of sun (based on 12 hours per day). The average daytime high as been 64 degrees and the overnight average was 50 degrees. June 2012 is the 4th gloomiest on record trailing only 1953, 1970 and 1980 in terms of total sunshine."

Never say never...pollinations may be later this year.
