What's wrong with this picture? A lot of my squash, and cucumbers are doing this! It's flowering, but not fruiting, misshaped or looking like this!
I guess it's due to poor pollination. Where's bees? I haven't seen them at all! No butterfly either. I am going to relocate Jasmine plant year the squash to see if I can attract some pollinators and help pollinate! I tried to self pollinate as well. But it seems like when male plants are blooming, female flower is not even close to opening up. more to come! |
5/20/2020. So I relocated all of my squash to one area, and I moved my Jasmine pot next to them...
5/27/2020 Here's the result! Solid Zucchini is going on! 6/10/2020 Since I relocated my Jasmine close to Zucchini, I have been getting a much better result! No more misshaped fruits! Other tips to get better fruits are to harvest them as often as you can and remove any dead fruits, and leaves, and keep them healthy. |
