Happy 4th to everyone!!!! The "Next Great Hope" is yellowish today but I'm not confident she will open tomorrow. The secondary will definitely open tomorrow and is code named "Boogan". As she will be a target for neighborhood kids all summer if she ends up the keeper. She has great positioning other than being at the edge of the garden, and facing up hill which would be extra stress on the stem. Healthiest looking female to date. I'm wondering why the "Next Great Hope" fell behind when she was ahead of "Boogan" by a day. I'm thinking back to before the summer of endless rain began and I remember the plant flagging past 10' and I'm starting to think this maybe the cause, along with my decision to tarp the female a few days earlier. Well time will tell, I'm hoping she matures throughout the day and opens tomorrow as the forecast for an early morning pollination looks great, coupled with the fact that Saturday will be the one day in the past 7 I don't have a fresh male available. When in rains it pours, but it can't rain all the time :)
