I have two females on the main vine of one plant that are one leaf node apart, and they look like they could open on the same day. They are pretty much identical in size....younger one(one node closer to the main vine tip) actually looks slightly larger on the bulb part. Is it possible they would open on the same day? Or does the younger one always open later? I'm guessing they'll open in around July 6 give or take a day.
If they do open the same day, would you pollinate both, or just one? I'm wondering if pollinating both so close together(on the same day) would create too much competition?
I should add that these would be the first pollinations on the plant, and I'm hoping one will be the keeper.
