At this point I my first plant was a male so I put it outside away from my grow room. I would like to destroy the plant as soon as possible only collecting as much pollen as I need to get about 70 seeds or so. At this point the male just started budding and has little pods everywhere none open. At what point can I collect some pollen and due away with my plant?

Also your photos diagrams do not appear. Could you perhaps email them to me so I can clearly see and understand the pollen collection prosess? Or repost them with new provided links ect.

I live in Hawaii and I am a medical patient. I orderd some BC Sweet God and The Purps. I do a lot of coloning but I would like to stash about 100 seeds of each strain that I like.

So having a film container full of pollen and being able to selectively seed some buds is a great idea.. Perhaps you can repost the photos and diagram?

Main question is when can I do away with the plant and when does it start to produce pollen? I want to get pollen yet avoid having it blown allover my back yard.. Anyway thanks for the advice and help..

Aloha

Well My pollen extraction worked. What I did was let the male grow to the point where a few of the pods opened and then I fed the male to my leopard tortoises. the largest male bud I kept. I took a hair spray lid and put a hole in the bottom. I put the bud inside the lid with a node sticking out the hole in the bottom and sat that into a glass of water. I put saran arap around it and put small holes in the wrap, to prevent pollenating me bedroom yet allowing the plant to breathe. I put it in a window for about 3 days and then took a makeup brush, I could see the white powder pollen and I scooped it up with the makeup brush and brushed it onto my buds.. And they already have huge seed pods.. Anyway threw the male bud away when I was finished.

Now I have all the seeds I need:)

Aloha
