Squash diaries part 3

[00:00:00]So, I have not been getting squash cuz I don't think I'm getting pollinated.

[00:00:07]And then Harmony showed me how she pollinates hers with the guys and then none of the girls are open right now. Maybe on the other side. Um so, I did that with this one and he's actually growing.

[00:00:21]And then I also did that with that guy and that guy.

[00:00:26]And they actually are like bigger than normal. The rest are still really small and developed cuz they're not pollinated.

[00:00:34]Look at how happy they are though.

[00:00:37]So pretty.

[00:00:39]And these are males too. So, all the males open I think first thing in the morning and then the females open later so you have to be quick to catch them.

[00:00:49]These guys I just have not had any luck getting a male and a female.

[00:00:54]So, this is usually what happens to the squash when it doesn't get pollinated.

[00:01:01]And I have to spray this thing again.

[00:01:04]Cleanse the buggies.

[00:01:06]I was trying to see if there was any females. All the males are now closed cuz they open first thing in the morning. I was checking them. I think they'll grow backwards.

[00:01:17]Even these I just I need to do more research cuz I need to figure this [ __ ] out. That's what I'm doing now. I'm not just planting and hoping for the best which that's kind of what I used to do.

[00:01:31]Now if things don't work out I try to figure out why why or how to fix things like this. I have to treat it again but I need to cut it back but it's still looking pretty good so we're not giving up hope. I just don't know how to get these guys to grow.

[00:01:49]Okay. Yeah, anyways we'll do research later.

[00:01:53]Mhm.
