      1. Open and Controlled Pollination

      Open Pollination

      Most vegetables and fruits need help getting their flower blooms fertilized. This is where nature comes to their aid. Bees, butterflies and other insects travel from one flower to another on different plants.

      Copyrighted Material

      They are the pollinators because pollen becomes stuck to their bodies from their previous flower bloom visits. This pollen transfers to the new flowers where they are fertilized.

      Controlled pollination

      Controlled pollination occurs by the hands of humans and not by mother nature. The pollen from one plant is dusted onto another. A hybrid plant is formed.
