How to tell if pollinated or not?

Joint Monster · Sep 14, 2013

Pollinated a female and didn't look a her for two days (left in tent with male, no air circulation). Looked, it was fuzzy looking, powdery-mildew? Dealt with that problem, was stunted a little, but seems to be turning around for the better now! How can I tell if she was successfully pollinated or not?

Okay...wait...I think I might see what looks to be a seed or two. Is that it? Or will they start popping up everywhere?

The pistils will appear to die if the pollination took.
PM? how did you pollinate?

Yes pistils near the tops are dead looking =D. Fresh pollen, new-washed-dried-paint-brush, straight to the pistils. Then into the male tent that didn't have any air moving around...thought I was supposed to "isolate" them after they were pollenated, guess I should have left them one day and then maybe sprayed with water and back to the flower room?

I kept my female isolated from all others except the male. put two females in a tent with one male( I know that's how I'd like it). after I was sure the entire plant was pollinated I pulled the male , came off with about .5 gram of pollen and am looking thru some f1 to carry on.

if applying pollen by hand dont rub against pistils

or they will start to die off they are very fragile

and will appear to be pollenated and instead be dieing off

like wanting a babby pregnating girl then kill her

just hold over top and tap applicator

i leave seperate for a day after dusting
then mist up both prego and none pregos before return to population

So day 51 of a 50-55day strain. They are definitely pollinated! I think they can go up to 60-63 days.... it's all cloudy but most pistils are still white?
They were pollinated around 09/05 to 09/10. Don't recall if I noted the exact time or not! It was day 14,15,16 of flower I think.
I don't see any Brown Seed5 popping out. I do see what looks like a calyx that's really fat, many of them. They are bright green.
