Peace, Wayne

Owensboro, Ky.

Nu-B ? If I have females on a main vine earlier than I want them...to pollinate...do I clip em as soon as I find them...or let them grow a while...does it matter? I know I won't want to pollinat b/4 the 10 to 12 foot mark, but what and when do I do with the females b/4 that point? Thanks for any and all input!! Peace, Wayne

If you have set a pollination point of 10 to 12 feet then remove all Females as soon as they can be cut off. Wait until the females are at least 12 inches from the advancing vine tip's so as not to have vine juices dripping onto the vine tip bud clusters.
