Bee pollinators for Indoor Gardens, pollinators for Greenhouse Vegetables and Fruits, for Tomatoes, Peppers, Strawberries, etc

I just wanted to add that I've now been using it on my tomatoes for a month or so and it's working great. When you touch a ripe flower you can see a burst of yellow pollen come out of the flower, it's really effective. I saw a video yesterday of a bumblebee working a tomato flower and every so often it would give off a loud buzz which was the same pitch as this pollinator, they chose the frequency well.I grow greenhouse tomatoes and they need some kind of manual pollination. I've been giving them a good shake every day all summer and get decent, but not great, pollination. Commercial growers use vibrating tools similar to this to vibrate the flowers and stimulate pollination.It will be a few months before I have tomato flowers this year, but this device looks like it should work. Its similar to an electric toothbrush in operation, click the button and it buzzes. I could do without the cutesy "bee" on the end, I'll probably remove the wings to just have a little knob to use. It seems a little expensive for what it is, but it's the first time I've run across a similar unit so decided to give it a try. It does seem decently made and I have hope it will hold up for a while.I'll try to update the review this summer when I can see if it actually improves pollination.

I am using this on my AeroGarden tomato plants. Since using it I have about 10 tomatoes and I can see the pollen fall.

I have a hydroponic garden where I raise tomatoes year-round. My usual method of pollination is to aim the leaf-blower at the plants, from a distance, and attempt to simulate the wind-pollination of tomatoes. Most tomatoes are self-fertile, meaning you only need to shake each flower to transfer pollen.=== The Good Stuff ===* From a physical standpoint, the device is small enough that it isn't too hard to reach flowers in the midst of foliage.* The USB charging is a nice feature-since I already have the hardware. I much prefer this over yet another dedicated charging cable which I am sure to lose. Not really sure how long it lasts on a charge, but I think my hand=strength (or my patience) would run out before the battery.* I don't keep records of how many flowers seem to pollinate, but it certainly seemed like the flowers that I buzzed with this tool had a higher rate of fruiting than the old method.=== The Not-So-Good Stuff ===* It really needs an attachment of some sort. My tomatoes can grow 10' tall, and it would be nice if this fit onto a broom handle of some sort to reach the higher ones without a ladder.* It is a little strange in appearance, so if you leave it sitting around, you may get some strange looks.=== Summary ===It does seem to serve its purpose, and it is nicely designed for the most part. I am not sure how it would work on plants which require it to transfer pollen between flowers, but the surface does seem like pollen would adhere to it. For my use, I wish it came with a 5' attachment.

I really like the look and feel and cannot wait to buzz my tomato plant blossoms in my greenhouse... someday soon, I hope. I like the fact that it is rechargeable. I am sure that this will be far more effective than my oscillating fan!

All lights on, charged but not working. Can't return, only has 30 days. So I wouldn't recommend.

Pros: Came fully charged out of the box. Nicely packaged. Good battery life and easy to recharge. This is very easy to use and I really like how lightweight and easy to handle / maneuver this is. I have the Aerogarden version of this and because it requires batteries, it is a bit heavier and bulkier. Is handy in pollinating some of my tomato and pepper plants. Cons: It's missing a key part of the design that makes the Aerogarden's version much better.... it needs a little brush in between the wings (like a mini toothbrush head) to spread the pollen more effectively. While this is a few dollars cheaper than the competition, and lighter weight, the wings do absolutely nothing and are purely decorative. The vibrating head doesn't really do much. The directions say just to tap it against the blossom center, but it needs the brush to better spread the pollen. The vibration is not great -- not very useful. It would also be a better design if the "on" button just pulsed vs. staying on. Honestly, an electric toothbrush does basically the same thing that these electric pollinators are supposed to do... these are just cuter. But the design of this brand needs some work.

I like this RUNWUSHENG Bee pollinator. I often start winter gardens inside. I've often had trouble with my tomatoes not pollinating. I used this by touching the bee to the flowers, and letting the tool do its job. It vibrates so shake the pollen where it needs to go. I got over a 75% increase in tomatoes when I used this this year. I am pleased. It was easy to snap it together, turn it on, and also to recharge it just by plugging in the USB. I recommend this product.

I have been having problems with my pepper plants growing fruit after flowering, and I ordered this in the hopes of improving that situation (and increasing the bounty from my tomato plants!) This tool wasn’t exactly what I expected, but I think it will do a good job. It is very similar to an electric toothbrush - a bit smaller than an adult one - with a silicone “bee” at the tip where the brush would be. (Note, to assemble, just prepress firmly to snap the head onto the main body.) When you press the power button, the head and “bee” vibrate (no movement). That vibration would definitely knock pollen off a flower if touched by the “bee”. I’m looking forward to trying it out this summer! Seems simple and sturdy. And I like that it is rechargeable with the supplied USB cord, rather than having to use batteries.
