I have planeted out my courgettes and they are really healthy lots of large green leaves and loads of fruits ..............but the fruits only grow to about 3 inches long and then the flower dies and so does the fruit, I have read that in some cases you need to pollonate the fruits manually.
my questions are:
is this usual will I have to do it to all of my courgette plants and
if so how do i actually do it, I presume that flowers without fruit are male and they hold the pollen and that i can transfer the pollen to the female but where on the female flower do i put the pollen?
i grew courgettes in the UK with no problem but seem to be struggling here in turkey. thanks
