Re: oh no! Beeees!!!! Hurry on this one !


Hi Alex
The bees have been doing naturally a very good job for a long time.  The problem you may have is if you have more than one type of AG.  You won't be able to keep track of what the cross is.  I have never seen a bee fail to polinate a flower- so you shouldn't have to worry about that.  Others in the list are more knowledgeable and may be able to offer helpful hints.  We tried putting a ziplock bag on the soon to opened female and on a couple of potential males.  In the morning we just eased off the baggie, and the flowers were unharmed.  It is probably important not to let the sun bake the flowers in the plastic bags.  
Good Luck
