Just wondering...I have no idea. Bees? Do they need help manually? Or do they do it them selves? Do I shake the plant?

Well, Eric, when two tomato plants love each other, they ... no, wait. That's something else.
Okay. You do not have to shake or otherwise stimulate the tomato plant. Tomatoes have what are known as "perfect" flowers because it has both male and female organs. The male portion of the flower produces pollen and the female portion produces the eggs.The stamen fertilizes the egg and, voila! Tomatoes. Just stake them and sit back and wait for the crop to come in.

in case you want to take over what the bees do, get a camel's hair brush. it extremely is the great element accessible pollinate. assemble the pollen formerly the solar dries out the dew. warmth also will make the blossoms fall off, as well as lack of moisture in the soil. in case you spot bees, they flow from flower to flower, no longer woman, then male. A camel's hair brush will carry the pollen a twin of a bee. strong success.
