I did grow a pair of tomatoes last winter in my greenhouse and it sorta
worked. I had a few ripe tomatoes in early March, but I had to make
sure I paid attention to the plants and hand-pollinated the flowers.

I was doing that with cucumbers before we uncovered them. The zucchini
were far easier...lol.


So long as you get male and female blooms at the same time! :-)

Been there, done that.


I was out just this morning helping the zucchini to commit lewd and
lascivious acts. Lots of boys, not so many girls. Some of the boys
got left out. (

lol Not enough girls! Oh well! ;-D

I wonder if there is a soil treatment for that?
Halfway seriously. g
