There are none that I am aware of. There are a few parthenocarpic zucchini, but that is it as far as I know.

Well... actually... they're *all* self-pollinating. Meaning that they produce self-compatible pollen. But I'm guessing that's not what you meant. Are you looking for winter squashes that require *no* pollination? Or are you looking for squashes that have combined male/female flowers like tomatoes and so pollinate themselves much more readily? In either case, I think you're out of luck.

Thank-you Farmer D.

It's a safe bet that if you don't know about it then it doesn't exist. Rats.

Sorry tc, looks like we cross posted. I was hoping to find a nice little winter squash that i could grow under cover without having to hand pollinate. Yep, i think i'm out of luck. But i have a plan B.

i was reading a UH melon trial recently where they grew the melons under hoops but removed the cover for a few hours once a week for pollination. Burst pollination, pulse pollination, something like that. If i can find a very short vined/bush squash i might try that. Maybe a delicata or Honey Bear?

Can you tell us what the problem is so we can better suggest a solution.
