My male flowers are turning yellow and dying when they are immature. Anybody have ideas as the cause.

Plant has to much estrogen? Mike might be on to something. Some low Testerone shots might be a option.

Ask the Team Pumpkin guys.

They're no longer selling male performance pills on their website, but they probably have a drawer full of them for sale if you give them the password.

With anything having to do with flowering or fruit set, etc. i would immediately fully water any plant with a problem with regular strength Miracle-Gro 15-30-15 1 tbsp./gallon H2O---it can't hurt...

It's because of the heat we had rick, your plant went into survival mode.
Give it a little while longer and every new flower should be good.

Anyone have any thoughts on why I have females opening nicely and a lot of them while none of the males are maturing.For me it's usually the other way around. I've done 2 soil analysis this year and both were very good. I.e. nothing is low or missing.
