Thanks!
I think the cotton bud stick is the classic method, I dunno why I haven't thought about that and just used the male flowers instead. It did work though and by now I have quite a few bees visiting my greenhouse every day so I don't need to bother with manual pollination anymore.
I have 2 tromboncino's outside, which are similar to the zucchini; I had a few fruit of them, but some bugs keep eating them. I've tried to grow zucchinis last year, but the plants were getting sick really quick.

I have seen it done with the male flower as well. It´s more of a pro´s method. I saw Toni, from La Huertina. Great vegetable gardener, but in Spanish.
I´ll keep reading your posts. Who knows, maybe with my Steemit blogging I can buy myself a lot and do some real gardening.
On that day I was thinking of using a small paintbrush but I was too lazy to go look for one so I just thought about plucking the male flowers and just using those. Had loads of them anyway.
Oh, that's the dream, isn't it? Buying some land and living off it, I would love that! For now, I have to be content with the greenhouse I built; things are growing great in there but it's almost full now, hehe.
Let's hope we'll both get some plots!
