What To Do With Bud That Decided To Go Male

I'm harvesting some clones from an old mother plant. I guess this one got impatient waiting for me to harvest it. I'm seeing pods on it which I think are male pollen pods. Can they be dried or is there a chance some of the pods would pop open and disperse pollen to a couple of other clones. I need pollen for a project I'm doing with colloidal silver anyway. I saw on the RIU site a guy who took the top and treated it like a clone here -> https://www.rollitup.org/do-yourself/437669-collecting-male-pollen-videoman40-post.html. Would his work? Main thing is how to process them.

Any thoughts on how many sugar leaves to leave on a bud - I'm harvesting and it has been a long, long process. I don't wear gloves and have some music on so life isn't much better than this.

i have read n experienced that u can take mature male pollen pods...capture the pollen...n then put it ur freezer and pollinate a female branch (quarantined from the other girls of course) but this dude was whacky.....nit sure if i would risk the chance of contaminating the whole crop

Just pluck the pollen sacs off very carefully and away from your grow room\girls..

Yeah, feeling no pain at the moment. I read that when the female gives up waiting to be pollinated she makes her own pollen. One plant really went over board and most of the bud sites are full of these pods. The reason I asked about the sugar leaves is that it seems like the more I trim the more the bud falls apart into smaller pieces.

I dried the buds on a clothes line for two or three days and then took them off and put them in grocery paper bags layered with shredded grocery paper bags. I wish I had cut the buds off the stems before putting them in the brown paper bags. They're very sticky; I put two ounces of the small buds in wide mouth canning jars last night. I cut everything in the grow tent tonight, trimmed it, hung them up and turned the lights and fan off. Put some plants on the patio as I get closer to the legal limit. I think I can make Black Russian seeds if I can get pollen in time to pollinate one of three female Black Russian clones that are the third or fourth generation. Was hoping to produce seeds from the Maui Waui but the mothers and any clones are too old to clone. Thanks for comments and support from the forum.
