Welll hear dis joke nah..3 yrs ago was the 1st time i planted squash ( n by ‘i’ i mean hubby as-he does ALL d yeard work..hehehe
well i am a farmer’s daughter but i never knew abt manual pollination. So all d squash were turning yellow n they dried up. Then a cuz came late aug n told me that i have to ‘marry’ the male n female flowers. I had no idea abt man n woman flowers..omg! ..but-by then it was late summer so i didnt get any squash that yrs.
last yr we were doing the ‘marry’ or ‘kiss; thing as people suggested..then a gf f mine told me to try the qtips because sometimes u dont get enough male flowers to pollinate the female
btw me guh ga fuh ask me hubby dat qwestion
