Does anyone know who to pollinate vegies in a green house like tomatoes?

Question

have just build green house to grow vegies in summer and winter no bugs how to get them polinated

Answer 1

The ones that need pollination are the ones that flower to produce 'fruit' - like tomatoes and cucumbers..  So you take a clean Q-tip and twist in the open flower - you will see faint pollen marks on it ~ then do All the flowers.  I grow tomatoes all winter long and it works quite well in a sunny window or a greenhouse.  Good luck!

Answer 2

In a controlled enviroment like a greenhouse the commercial growers have machines that shake thier plants daily releasing pollen for pollination..You can go out daily after a tomatoe plant starts blooming and shake each plant by hand for about 5 seconds gently every day..this will pollinate them..

Answer 3

I am pretty sure bees are the best, but I also think plants like tomatoes are self pollinating, so there is no need for bugs

Answer 4

Check with a garden center.  You should be able to purchase containers with the bees that can pollinate your tomatoes.

Pollination can also be done by hand but it is a lot of work.
