I have 3 squash plants that are flowering like crazy, but none of the flowers are female. They have been in the ground for 3 months.

  1. Be patient, whay happens is that the male flowers come first and this attracts the bee's, now the female flowers will show and the pollination system is already in operation.  The males always show up first, so no worries, the females will show up


  2. Lay some money around the male flowers and the females will be sure to show up.If that does not work check the soil PH level.

  3. I read that this can happen if the plant is stressed - if it doesn't have enough space, if it's competing with weeds or if it isn't getting enough water. If all those things are ok then I'm sure the female flowers will turn up soon - the male ones always get started first anyway.
