In an effort to try and diagnose the female flower problem I took tissue samples and sent them overnight to the lab. Well, the results came back and while I was hoping for a nutrient deficiency the results came back better than I have seen in my typical field grown plants. The only nutrient that was higher than I wanted to see was nitrogen. So, my current theory is the lack of female flower development is due to excessive nitrogen. There have been some vine stress cracks that also suggest higher than needed nitrogen. Also, the poor female flower development problem is occurring consistently on all plants so it is not a genetic.
With everything else in check and the plants continuing to grow and look great I have decided to excessively water the plants in an effort to leach out some of the excess nitrogen.
