I was told that watermelons are able to pollinate them selves. They get
male and female flowers, and bees/bugs do it for you. I got tired of
waiting so I used a "q" tip a couple of times. I had melons, but I dont
know if it was me or nature that got them to come on.

Can the pollinator for seedless watermelons be any seeded
watermelon? How about cantaloupe? cucumber?
Seedless watermelons require a seeded variety to be planted nearby for
pollination. When I've bought these seeds the packet always contains
both the seedless and seeded varieties.
