Pretty exciting times for us here. We manually pollinated both of the female flowers. Many thanks to the members who shared links for videos on the best way to do this. It was a joint effort by my wife and I. We're confident they'll pollinate successfully though. Just to be sure we didn't mess up, we used more than one male flower in the process for each female flower. The male flowers came off of the same vines, but I'm not sure that matters? My wife thought it best for us to tie them up for a couple of days as she saw different articles online where growers did that. Now, it's time to wait and see what happens. I read where it could take 7-10 days before we know anything. Is that true? Wish us luck! =)
