I pollinated a 1118 Bryson and have just noticed it is growing quicker on one side.

In the picture you can see it is much higher on the right side. Almost like one side wants to be a round pumpkin and the other more like a watermelon.

Should I pull the flower and check the lobes?

Also, side of flower directly above the oblong side is stll green while the rest of the flower has turned yellow.

I decided to pull back the flower and discovered three normal lobes and one lobe that had developed seeds. I've posted two more pictures in my diary.
