Squash pollination

Question

How do you know if the squash is pollinated? Will the fruit become longer or should I assume that it isn’t and pollinate it myself? I do have a decent amount of bees around, so I have assumed that they are pollinated since the flowers go limp. Am I correct?

Answer 1

If you have vegetables growing the plants are being pollinated. The bees are doing there job!

Here is a couple of links with more information.
