Yeah, you got yourself a boy there. All is not lost if its your only plant. Save the pollen and breed it with parts of your next female and you should have a lot of seeds for a long time. If its a good strain, you might even be able to sell and start a few of your friends up or share and trade seeds with your friends.

hey, i have another plant by it but its younger, about a week younger. how do i save the pollen sacks? do i have to wait until it gets bigger to pollinate?

You are right, wasted time, that is why you should always try to grow 3 - 5 plants from the start that way you should get a female, usually all 5 are females when you do that.

You do have to give the pollen sacs time to mature, not sure how long but if you go busting them early it's just a wet mess of nothing you can use.

in a nut shell wait a while till the pollen sacks are full take care cutting them of put them in a ziploc and in the freezer once you have a female flowering take pollen out of frezzer and use a q tip to rub some pollen on a few of the lower buds

You are gonna have to isolate the male plant because pollen is like ink, it just gets everywhere. I'd keep it on 12/12 lighting, you'll know they are ready because you'll start seeing yellow powder on the leaves where they break open. I suppose you could break a couple open every week until it is a powder and store it airtight, supposed to keep it up to 30 days that way but I never had any luck, it just always turns into mold, trying to save it. You might try storing the pollen sacs and then breaking them open when you need them if they are mature enough. I'm not sure how long it takes them to be mature I'd have to read up again.

The best way after that is to get some on a small paint brush and just apply it to a couple of buds.

Definitely isolate the male plant, even in another room that stuff can spread and ruin your whole crop. What I said above has been my experience with pollen. Keep me posted on how it works for you.

lmmfao bro the pollen is the equivilent to a cumshot lol it is located in the lil bannana looking pods on that male plant it looks like lil fine yellow dust one grain of dust equals one seed so be carefull when pollinating your female

Here are a few good articles/posts on breeding. If you have another plant with the male, its probably best to remove the male and put it elsewhere where it won't end up pollinating all of another plant. You just want to pollinate a few of the smaller bottom branches, where the buds smaller are anyway and save your main kola for smoke.
