sockmonkey, the largest T squash, maybe 5 ft. tall, is only producing male flowers and they are falling off.

They only last about 24 hours open. I gathered some pollen from males on q tips, and it is in a ziplock bag in the fridge. I have little creepy flies, some ants, and bees hanging around the flowers...

Also, lizards love the T-Squash plants, so I've lost a few male flowers due to cats chasing lizards around the T squash plants. I do have some squash that are Picking size, but I am waiting for the weekend when a friend comes back from DC. We can do some kind of Korean stir with them.

That’s a good idea. I knew I liked you for some reason. :o)
