RE: Greenhouse Goodies In August

in GEMS • 4 years ago

The melon pears have always been a success, but it looks like it will be different this year. Most flowers fell off. 😢
Next year I'll need to make sure I can bring the plant outside when temperatures are too high...

Sort:  

When kept inside you should also make sure to give the flowering plant a good shake everyday in order to stir up enough pollen. I even had issues with my outdoor hydroponic eggplant not developing fruit because the bees didn't find it.
I also keep some peppers inside to make sure they don't breed with other varieties, and they keep dropping all their flowers, too.
