How to Tomatoes Pollinate?

Tomato flowers are self-pollinating

Pollen moves from the anther to the stigma within the same flower

Wind can help shake pollen loose

Insects can transfer pollen between flowers

Vibrating the plant can improve pollination

Gently tapping flower clusters can release pollen

Using an electric toothbrush near flower stems can simulate vibration

Warm, dry conditions help pollen transfer

Avoid very high humidity, which can reduce pollen release

Ensure plants are healthy and flowering regularly
