Hi everybody ! :))
I have a male plant - 2 months from seed and has already balls.I decided to keep it because it has some canadian genetics.But my question is : how much time needs the plant to develop the pollen (it receives direct sunlight 7-8 hours a day) so I just wonder when will be the pollen ready or the plant will flower like the females in Sept-Oct (the days now are increasing - from 13 h next month will be 14 h etc. )

Your oppinions will be useful for me ! Keep rollin' :peace:

Is this an outdoor grow? Indoor it seems like it doesn't take more than a few weeks to a month to get pollen. Given that it's a male, you'd do well to throw him in a closet with a 75watt floro on him and set the timer to 12/12. Pollen seems to have a short shelf life so keep that in mind when you breed.

Agreed. Additionally, pollen can have an increased shelf life if place in a vacuum seal and thrown in the freezer.

do your fems have the same genetics? Make clones. I'm totaly aginst males.
If he wants to store seeds for future harvest clones won't do him any good.
