This is a nice image from Barbeetoo's huge melon. Looks like a 5 or 6 lober to me? Opinions?

It appears the roof fell in. Probably when she cut it. There is a pie shaped wedge pointing strait down in the center that belongs on the top. It's a 5.

Thanks Dave, the wedge is why I couldn't make up my mind. The second image is fairly convincing that she was a five. Now....should we be looking for 5 lobe females? lol

Watch for the 5's but keep the one with the BEST shape and grows the fastest. Keep a 3 ONLY if you have to.
