Questions...



Hi,

Just a few questions:

1. My plants are flowering right now and all the flowers are female.  I
see male flowers comming along, but it looks like they are out of synch
and will arrive after these females die off.  Should I just be patient?

2. If I want to remove these female flowers and fruit, what's the best
way to do it?  I don't want to stress the plants or introduce
infection...

3. If the male and female flowers remain out of sync, can I save the
pollen from the males for any period of time?  If so, what's the best
storgae method?

4. I've been fertilizing with miracle grow and steer manure soup.
Should I start changing to a different fertilizer?  Vines are about 8
feet long at this point...

Thanks for any help and feedback!
