Hey Rob how ya doing? One extra thought here: If your going to use a small paint brush to pollinate by hand & you have more than one variety & you want to keep seeds true or pure, I'd get more than one paint brush one for each variety. Rob, you said it was to cold for ripening your fruit across the pond, did you get a frost already? Normally you don't have one till a lot later than us and then you've had some go into november?

So put some insects in there or solve it by hand hand pollination.... Had the same and just used my fingersgoing from flower to flower, not gettig 100% polinated but it did work. Maybe a small brush works better. Just my two cents Rob NL... its to cold for riping my fruit here...:-( -- Have A Good One Styx >:o)>
