Hi Todd,
These things will produce some of the most odd looking fruit you have ever seen! Other times they can be very normal looking. I feel sure there is no problem with that female. You can just never predict what these things will throw next! Are you growing for competition or just for fun? Shoot me an email, I'm not that far from you. mfowler@hsc.edu
