Only the females produce fruit, they will make a fruit wether it gets pollinated or not. If it gets pollinated the fruit will grow if it doesn't it will get soft and fall off. The males only purpose is to pollinated the females, after that they are done, that is why you pick the males from the plant and throw them away when you are done, I will normally use several males on every female.
This is good to know. Does this apply to all squash variety's?
