5 days past pollination... today is Saturday, it was pollinated Monday. Cannot touch fingers around it, flower got soggy and made the female lobes inside very soft after rain, tho rains only lasted few hours. I chose to remove the flower, broke off some lobes and then thought what the heck, and took the last of it off. Nothing else is soft. So hope nothing bad comes from that... either me removing the lobes or the soft lobes to begin with... i was worrying it means its dying. There is another female up the main two feet or so, and another 2 ft from that one, but a few days out before it blooms, likely Tuesday is my guess.
