I tried several methods and obtained the most fruit using 3 female to 2
male.

Hello all,

I am interested in planting some hardy kiwi (not arguta, the kolomikta) and
was wondering if anyone knows how many males I need to plant to pollinate
the females.

I've read some literature that the arguta species needs a male for every 8
plants.

Thanks!
