Dear Trent,
While this is true, if you want to try and make a cross after the petals
have dropped, go ahead and try. However, you should assume that it is not
likely that you will affect pollination with these efforts after the petals
have dropped. So keep careful notes to keep track of which flowers are for
sure and those that are not likely to have worked. I think you still have
some time while the petals are dropping, sometimes this takes a day or two.
