Started first hand pollination of some of my cherimoya's today and it got me thinking about different hand pollination brush techniques that might be out there, I'm kind off the double dap will do yah style straight in twice then out. What other techniques do you all use!!! Love hand pollinating cherimoyas I think the smell of cherimoya flower is one of the best, very sexy-tropical!

Wow, they are already flowering for you? I am still harvesting fruit on mine. It's been so cool this Spring, I am not surprised they are so late with flowering.

I am sure your wife prefers it when you look at the Fruit Gardener, the best fruit porn there is.
