I removed today two femals on side vines on the 1021 Eckardt with seven lobes.

I hope now for a seven lober on main vine.
Has anybody eperience with a seven lober?
Is a seven lober better as as five or six lober?

Here is a picture from the both seven lober:

Unfortunately the females were removed before I opened it and saw thats seven lober.
Yesterday I removed 5 other females on side vines there was four with six 6 lobes and one with 5 lobes.
The 1021 Eckardt plant like to produce females with a lot of lobes.
Next week two females on the mainvine will be open, then I will see, if I have the luck for a female with seven lobes on main vine.
