Still too early here to see any bees. We had snow and ice day before yesterday.
We've had a lack of bees the last few years. I've been pollinating by hand. Need to do this anyway if you don't want cross-pollination. Otherwise there's no telling what your seeds will produce the next year.
That's not always a bad thing though. I grew some patty pan squash crossed with honeydew melon (as near as I can tell) last year. That was pretty good stuff.
