Thursday the female was showing some yellow, signs of opening was near. Woke up 5:30 to check, was completely yellow but decided it wouldn't open today, 6:30 about to leave for work and its about 1/8th open, ran to the house to grab my males, was rushing at this point, can't be late for work. Tore the hell out of the flower but didn't damage the lobe. did a quick cover with a tarp, its been raining every day here in PA for the last week. Get home from work, the tarp blew over, the flower being ripped broke through the tie off and had an inch of water in it. I just laughed, straighten the vine out and will try the next one at 15'. Oh the 8' at day 6 quit growing, or extremely slowed down, its not dull but its not exactly shining either. Not really concerned for reasons mentioned in previous entries. Side vines have been putting on some serious length with the main slowing down. Concerned about the need for fungicide and to get in there and start burying vines, but with the rain everyday all I can do is stand aside wait and watch, I did cut some tertiaries yesterday. Side note, the two males from the Kline had barely any pollen, was forced to use some from the "dream machine" which at this point the crack in its main vine didn't terminate it, but really hampered it. After I get one set on the Kline, I'm 99% I'll pull it, but for now its acting as a flower factory.
