I have 2 females getting closer to ready to pollinate. One is at 13ft the other at 12ft on seperate plants. I want boh to be pollinated by the same plant but I might have to be out of town when they open. I was wondering if I could leave all the males on the plant that I want to use to pollinate and pinch all the males on the other before I go and let the bees do the work.

Would this cause too much stress on the plant that I pinch the males from and can anything besides an AG pollinate an AG?

Bees will happily do pollenation for you but who knows what pollen, even if you thoughtfully sort the pollen sources for them.

Is there anyone you can trust to do the pollenation for you?
