I have never had the problem of no males available when a female was going to open tommorrow morning....OH NO !!!!
I feel my best choice is to use a male that is looking like it will open the soonest (2 days away)...anyone had the experience using a male flower one day earlier than it would have opened naturally ?

ahhhh nooo. If the male is not ready the pollen will not be viable.

Turns out I was lucky...just one male flower on another plant was able to open on it's own....Thanks
