Here is a picture of the female I pollinated on the 1446 Eaton at about 17 feet on the main vine (self-pollinated with three of her males, no other siuitable males were available in my area for this one). I covered her this morning and then pollinated her just now when I got home (and covered her back up). Anybody have any ideas on why these lobes are so massive and engorged looking? I was expecting to be able to count them, but when I opened up the plastic bag to look inside the flower they were grown into each other and really huge (like a good sized meat ball!) The lobes on my last years plant didn't look anything like these and were much smaller? The fruit underneath these odd lobes is regular sized (maybe even a bit smaller than I thought it would be)? Weird.
