Bees do not pollinate tomatoes, wind does. Give your plants a good
shake daily till you set fruit


Well, honey bees don't pollinate tomatoes, they can't get to the pollen.
The sonic "buzz" of bumble and carpenter bees along with other solitary
bees causes the tomato to release pollen usually resulting in higher
yields than depending on the wind or vibration to do the trick.
