Hi all
My plant is about 30 days since germination and has just started to vine. The vines have not even laid down yet so I was surprized to see a pea sized female flower on the vine. Should I leave it or pinch it off. If I leave it I'm afraid as it grows it will break the vine. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

It won't grow very fast until it opens and is pollinated, so I would say just leave it for now. You can always pinch it later, say when it is about to open or even later.

sometimes they just show up early. a guy i gave seeds to had the same thing happen to him. the funny thing is that i was growing the same seed also, and have not encountered that. i'm with ken, just leave it for now and see what happens
