I have 1 162 B plant in. Same thing fruits are all blocky retangular. Growing great. I think I'm culled down to 3 or 4. I think I have 1 selfed. others are pollinated with 81 wolf or 150.5 Razo. Cant decide on leaving 2 or 3. All controlled polinations were mid july.

Still no female blossoms on mine. Hoping there are a few coming soon. New blossoms are forming and can't tell yet.

I have the same problem as Grim--I see tiny females and they have all burned off or just seem to fall off,this is my first year for these and the plants are large and good males.

I checked my records the nice blocky fruit are on the 162b plant.My 162a has some real longish shaped fruit.162a was the bigger plant but smaller fruit.

Cojoe my best fruit at the moment is on the 162J/A. with a long blocky beast. The 162 B is also doing well but not quite as long or blocky, more oval shaped.
