Question From: L. Cole - MICHIGAN
Q: it is imposible to hand pollenate my cucumber plants and I don't have the bees, I tried the finger, q tip, sharp pointed knife, tiny brush, I cannot get pollen to stick to anything to transfer to the female,, can I cheat alittle and use the pollen from my male zucchini plant for my female cucumber
A: Cut off the male flower and gently but firmly rub it on the female flower. Mother Nature will do the rest. Best And Happy Yardening, Nancy
