I attempted my first pollination last Thursday (12th) - 10 ft out, nice looking flower, 5 lobes, used 3 males but one of them was 3 days old... & it was on a scorching hot day! Yesterday I did my second pollination, again with 3 males, 2 of which had come out the day before, & the other had come out that night. It was also a lot cooler, my biggest concern is that this flower looked a bit deformed compared with the last. Got my fingers and toes crossed, 'cos I'm fast running out of room in my little tunnel! I've got a bit of irrigation hose which runs off the tap, with more to add.
