Sugar apple flower question

[Jani]

I know there are other threads, but the answers aren't clear and I need a quick answer because of hand pollinating timing concerns.

This flower partially opened up today..there are several that seem like they are a day or two behind this one...

Is this female or male? Do i pry it open or wait til it opens up (tomorrow morning?) and then try to collect pollen?

Thanks..

Female, collect pollen from this flower tomorrow morning and apply to any new flowers that look like this.
