Why isn't my watermelon vine watermeloning? (lol)

Hi mamas, I have a really great looking watermelon vine that has produced many blossoms, but no fruit. Is there something I should do to make it produce?

Thanks,
Rebecca

Watermelons are insect-pollinated. If they don't get pollinated, they won't bear fruit. I don't know why the insects wouldn't be pollinating them, though.
