DaisyI said:If you are helping with pollination, use a soft brush. Brush the male flower a couple times then repeat with the female flower. Its really not hard but needs a gentle touch.
I was brushing and shaking vines for an hour a day for 2 weeks lol..it made no difference. Fan on the plants for 14 hours a day. From what I read it seems that 30 degree temps killed the pollen and it's why it couldn't pollinate. maybe the cucumber seeds I had were not good, who knows..it was an experiment, now I know not to attempt them inside again! lol. I think even my dill is vanishing..the ladybug that got in may have eaten half of one as I see leaves missing on it since this morning lol. Lesson learned..plants are meant to be outside lol:)
