It is all done by hand.
Vanilla vines flower in the spring and after pollination will be harvested in approximately nine months. Assuming that pollination occurs between March & May the beans can be harvested between December & February
actually, yes there is but it's very difficult to explain. you get a certain feeling and then bam you know if the person is a french vanilla or a vanilla bean.personally, i find that vanilla bean people are more laid back, but that could just be my interpretation.
It is known as pollination (sometimes as cross-pollination).
Self pollination, wind pollination, and insect pollination are the three ways that pollination occurs. Pollination is needed in order for plants to reproduce.
The two main types of pollination are self (or autogamous) pollination and cross (or heterogamous) pollination. Self pollination - is when pollination is tansfer from the anther to the stigma of the same flower. Cross pollintion - is when pollination is transfer from the anther to the stigma of another flower
There are 2 types of pollination 1. Self pollination. 2. Cross pollination.
self-pollination cross-pollination wind-pollination
The process of pollination from same flower is called self-pollination. the process of pollination from another flower of same breed is called cross-pollination.
Pollination. Fertilization is what occurs after pollination.
Wind pollination and Insect pollination
The right answer is "cross" or "cross pollination" or "cross-pollination"
