Sungron’s Question
I have been hand pollinating my squash blossoms because the bees seem few and far between. Do I need to get the male pollen deep down inside the female flower or just on the tips?

Just on the tips should do the trick - congratulations on your new arrivals. Sometimes Mother Nature just needs an extra hand.
Keep growing, Marianne Binetti
