Speaking of my main plant...

Most of the early female flowers have aborted. This probably had something to do with the extremely hot weather as they emerged. Luckily I was able to pollinate one. And, now it's looking as if I'll have some more opportunities in the next couple of weeks. There are a couple of newish females that seem like they may grow to maturity. As well, there is still a female that may grow on the 300 Gerry.

The female in this picture is on the secondary vine of teh 584.2 Frei, closest to the watering timer. It is also nearing the fence. So, the vine would have been terminated. But, now I'll see if I can pollinate the flower as a backup and train the vine away from the fence.
