Trim the end shoots about 4 inches. I usually do this on my squash vine plants after they are growing between 8 to 9 feet to encourage side shoots. After three to four days you’ll see side shoots bearing female flowers. Don’t throw the trimmings. Use it in stir fry or soup.
I have 4 cucumber plants and only one female bloomed so I hand pollinate by taking 2 male flowers since I have soooo many 😂 and I rubbed the pollen on her... I got scared that it didn’t work but now she’s the size of my pinkie finger!!! ❤️❤️😭 so happy.
I am a newbie and After many videos on RUclips , I didn’t get that much info as I got from just one of urs. This is first video I watched of yours and subscribed. To the point and exactly what I am looking for Thank you
Thank you for the information. My cucumbers have started producing flowers and will certainly watch it closely for female and male flowers. Thank you again.
Thank you for the great information! I am growing cucumber and cantaloupe for the first time and am only getting male flowers. It's early on in the bloom so I will fertilize more and be patient. I live in the Tampa Florida area and am finding it a lot harder to grow here than where I grew up in Kentucky, although the growing season is so much longer in Florida but I miss the great soil in Kentucky.
I suggest that you use more water in Florida,,the sandy loam soil there will dry out much faster than in Kentucky ,,,I live in west NC and friends who live in east NC have to water a lot more than I do because of their sandy loam soil.
I wanted to know if I should take some of the MALE flowers off my cucumber plants to encourage FEMALE flower growth and you answered that for me, thank you! I also would like to know if I should do that for EARLY MALE flowers on my Squash & Zuccini plants? Also, you specifically mentioned 'Bone Meal' for the Cucumber problem, again THANK YOU!
I recommend Not doing it on the squash and zucchini on early season, only after the plant is mature and keep given mostly male flowers, by the way, flowers are edibles! 😉
Keep trying, plant some flowers that attract bees like sunflowers, but for next time you need a Parthenocarpic cucumber variety seeds which don’t required pollination to produce fruit, the only detail is that you will get seedless cucumbers.
very helpful! I would get rid of it but it's grown on me and the male flowers are everywhere... no female that i can see. I planted a seed from a squash i got at walmart. but its actually stopping weeds with the amount of light it consumes. a hundred times better than the poison ivy that used to grow there. so thank you so much for the information very helpful!
Thank you for the information! I missed the pollination of one of my pumpkin flowers because i didn't check them 1 day? 😭 Thankfully another female flower open 2 days later.
I use fish emulsion approximately every 3 weeks. Cucumbers love water! I water every other day if it doesn’t rain, but I recommend watering everyday in very hot temperatures like 87 to 98 F.
Cucumbers will fail to Bloom when they lack energy. The leaves need to be dark green for photosynthesis and the soil rich in nutrients. Add blood meal and fish fertilizer to boosts Nitrogen and phosphorus. Make sure they stay hydrated with water and at least 6 hours of Sun. Good Luck! If it does not work plant new seeds of a different variety, they grow really fast! Good luck!
Bottle gourd plants produce both male and female flowers. The plant will produce more male flowers if the temperature is too low. Move them to a shady area if they are in pots or use a cloth garden fabric to cover them when it’s too sunny to see if your plants will grow male flowers.
Male flowers are produced first also if the weather is overly hot and humid the plants delay the production of females flowers. Be patient they will come 😉
Don’t force them open! Obviously the plant is having some kind of issued! Add fertilizer (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium) since cucumber plants are heavy feeders also extreme climate conditions can cause this like too cold or too hot. The plant can sense the lack of pollinators and the flowers won’t open! Usually the 2nd set of female flowers are the ones to open! Give it some time but don’t force it because that won’t work! 😉
@@AnabelsFinquita I regularly fertilize with fish emulsion worm tea and morbloom… but they are in containers so maybe I need to increase the frequency I may be losing nutrients through watering. Thanks for your response.
Squash plants have a reputation for poor pollination. The causes are: 1- Too few bees or pollinators to move the pollen from the male to the female flowers. 2- A stretch of very cold or very hot weather when the flowers are in bloom. 3- Wet weather, if you must water, avoid early in the morning when the bloom fist open. As well, irrigate only the soil, not the plant.
I had a problem that i always get females on my squashes, and i never get males.. I coulda got a good harvest if i atleast got a few males :( like all of the blooms are female
Yes, there are squashes that only produce female flowers. You need to know the name of the breed your dealing with. Then, you can look them up and discover what flowering/fruiting habits they have.
Shiieeet son all I get are males and my plant is green and huge and happy buttt I’ll get a female and then she died b4 she can grow and I can’t self pollinate so frustrating
@@amberamber2821 usually male flowers come out first. If you have too many male flowers get rid of some and that will stimulate the plant to give more flowers. Also water twice a week, male flowers don’t like too much water and female flowers do. Sometimes they need more time, be patient! Good luck!
Not really! Choose a large pot at least 10 gallons in size but the bigger the pot the better. Usually 20-24 inches deep and wide is required for a single plant.
It could take up to 55 days roughly after germination, all depends on the variety. If the plant looks light green, add fertilizer, that will help with the energy needed to bloom flowers. Good luck!
Yes it’s possible that your plant is getting stressed with too much heat and dropping immature buds before they have a chance to open but also depends on the variety. Pumpkin flowers only last for a Day!!
Some varieties produce only female flowers and have a more concentrated period of fruit production. Also there are some varieties that do not need to be pollinated to produce fruit. Thank you!
Most common reason is lack of energy. The leaves need to be green for photosynthesis and the soil must be rich in nutrients. Adding blood meal to the soil boosts nitrogen and phosphorus, you also can use fish fertilizer. Water 1 to 3 times a week to keep soil moist. Good luck!
So im growing watermelon iv been using fish fertilizer everything looks good but I can see my female flowers with a lil watermelon probably a frew cm big the flower isn't really a flower and just falls off ? Any advice
Watermelon flowers only last for 1 day. They open shortly after sunrise and die at night, that’s the only chance to be pollinated. Don’t worry if your plant is healthy there’s going to be many new blossoms and that increase the chances for fruiting.
@@AnabelsFinquita oh I didn't know that.... so say I find a lil watermelon thats maybe a few cm and it has a flower I need to pollinate it that day. Because I've watched some videos and the watermelon with a flower some people have the watermelon is like half an inch already with a flower ( my female flowers/ watermelon only cm)
That tiny watermelon under the female flowers is the ovary, waiting for the pollen to germinate. You can hand pollinate or way for the natural pollinators to do their job.
@@AnabelsFinquita that's what I thought too! But my plant definitely is a variant that produces different male and female flowers. It's grafted from a tree that gives fruits so I'm expecting female flowers at some point soon (most of them are about to bloom in next few weeks). About 10-15 flowers that bloomed however were all male without any organ to spread the pollen onto. Interesting.
@@AnirudraDiwakar maybe you have a variant male tree that needs a female tree for pollination. Does the mother tree gives male and female flowers separate? 🧐 Do you have the plant indoor? Is the plant young? All that can influence your productivity! Keep looking for a resolution, plants mutate many times but usually return to normal the next season. Good Luck!
@@AnabelsFinquita I don't have the mother tree right now unfortunately but it definitely gave fruit. I have the plant outdoors and it's been about a year since I grafted it. It is producing flowers this season as expected but the first few ones didn't bear any female parts for pollination. I will keep looking, and hopefully will get the proper set of flowers soon! Thanks for all the help! :)
@@AnabelsFinquita I can tell they are female because every flower has a little fruit. I was looking for male flower on other plants so I could hand pollinate them, but no luck. Thank you for your reply and let's hope for the best. 🤞🤞🤞
It could be nutrient imbalance, too much nitrogen can cause plants to produce primarily leaves. The plant will be large and usually very green an healthy but will have few or no flowers.
@@thelastwaterbender6369 oh ok well I understand but since it’s not working try to fertilize less to see if it start flowering 😉 sometimes plants get very comfortable and breaking that pattern with a bit of stress can make the difference.
Fish fertilizer is what I use all the time! That is 💯 Nitrogen. Phosphorus will be good too for the fruit. Walmart, nursery, any plant store will have it.
Make sure your soil have enough fertilizer, cucumbers are heavy eaters and also lots of water and Sun. That could be lack of nutrition or too much water an also NOT much water.
🤔I would switch to a different variety first. Temperature, whether and Nitrogen levels are the main reason. Change the soil and planting spot in you can. Change!!! Is a way of creating new conditions for growth! Good Luck!
You probably have a variety that does not need pollination to produce fruits. Your female Flowers will produce fruit without the male flowers, they already have the generic modified male pollen in it.
Yes Nitrogen!!!! One of the best fertilizers for your plants! You can find it in fish fertilizer or blood meal. Nitrogen is one of the most distributed elements in nature.
@@AnabelsFinquita cumber plants had male and female flowers for few months, but now there are only female flowers. Is there any remedy to have male flowers as well to polinate the female flowers.
@@georgekk5243 I recommend to sprinkle some Epsom salt around the plant. Epsom salt helps improve flower blooming, it can help plants grow bushier. If you have another cucumber plant with male flowers, you can extract the pollen with a paint brush and introduce it into the female flowers. Hope this help you!

I need help, I have only green leaves on my pumpkin squash.
It could be too little light! Vines lack the energy to produce Flowers and fruit.
Trim the end shoots about 4 inches. I usually do this on my squash vine plants after they are growing between 8 to 9 feet to encourage side shoots. After three to four days you’ll see side shoots bearing female flowers. Don’t throw the trimmings. Use it in stir fry or soup.

Hello Anabel,
Informative Video. Thanks for putting this
We don’t get enough bees unfortunately to pollinate so I bought this hormone spray to help it out. I even did hand pollinating but no cucumber yet ;/
Keep trying, plant some flowers that attract bees like sunflowers, but for next time you need a Parthenocarpic cucumber variety seeds which don’t required pollination to produce fruit, the only detail is that you will get seedless cucumbers.

What is the cause of miscarriages in plants? For instance, my squash gets female flowers, but will not last.
Squash plants have a reputation for poor pollination. The causes are: 1- Too few bees or pollinators to move the pollen from the male to the female flowers. 2- A stretch of very cold or very hot weather when the flowers are in bloom. 3- Wet weather, if you must water, avoid early in the morning when the bloom fist open. As well, irrigate only the soil, not the plant.

I had a problem in bitter gourd plant not getting male flowers what is the problem behind that
Some cucumber plants only produce female flowers, that is called GYNOECIOUS “ I recommend you to check the breed you have and see if its one of them.
How many days till you showed any flowers? I’m at day 45 and still have no flowers
It could take up to 55 days roughly after germination, all depends on the variety. If the plant looks light green, add fertilizer, that will help with the energy needed to bloom flowers. Good luck!
When I was growing pumpkins when I had female flowers they never bloom and I know why because i grew them in summer they dont bloom as much in summer
