Group,
I went to my patch at 5:30 this morning, pollinated one
female on each of the 576 Castellucci 96 and the two
622.6 Castellucci 98's using three males from the 682.4
Castellucci 96. This was the only three male flowers in
the entire patch so each female enjoyed only one. I then
covered each little girl back up with the freezer bag I had
placed on them yesterday afternoon. The question I have
is this:
Is only one male enough to take care of the pollination
process?
It just seemed like a very insignificant amount from the
male side. The bottom line, I know, is...time will tell!
Thanks,
Scott Parsons

I try to use up to 6 if I have them, the more the better I figure.
