February — MarchThe farmer's work: Tanbeet, that is, pollination
The farmer climbs the palm to place the male pollen in the female bunch by hand, as has been done for thousands of years. No machine takes the place of this step, even today.

Your task
Open each spathe with a tap, then drag the male palm's pollen to every bunch that has opened.
