Lack of pollination: the result is that the next generation produced by plant mating, only male or female or unable to mate, can not produce the next generation, nor can it produce fruits and seeds. Therefore, we can help with the pollination of mysterious fruits in a man-made way, by raising flies next to potted plants during flowering, and flies can also pollinate effectively.

2. Environmental factors: the flowers and pollen of mysterious fruit are less resistant to the environment during flowering, so it is best to avoid such factors as low temperature, cold current, rainfall, strong wind, and so on. In terms of artificial management, watering is best not to drench the whole plant, so that the pollen will not be washed away.
