Getting a lot of flowers but no fruit.

My zucchini, butternut squash, honeydew, watermelon and cucumbers are all flowering but not growing any fruit. The vines are growing and a nice green. I live in Northern Ohio and we have had a week with temps in the 90’s. I have watered everyday since we have not had any rain. What can I do?

Do you have bees around the flowers. If no pollinators are visiting, you need to pollinate the flowers yourself. Here is info on hand pollinating melons then zucchini: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/fruits/melons/hand-pollinating-melons.htm ^[1]
