merry christmas 4u2, ive just been reading thru your journal, very impressed i is, after youve collected the pollen, are you just gonna sprinkle some on the ladies, is it that simple?...i wish i was as competent as growing!

:ciao: AMU..thanks for spending Some of your Christmas with me My kids are at thier Moms and Its a bit Lonely..So i thaught I would share..I am ne wto grow as well my friend..I like to read and reesearch and then practice..I Baught a make-up brush that i will use to brush the pollen on the white hairs of selected females..:hubba: ..I made up some "carrier" which is nothing more the microwaved flour..this is to make more pollen..if that makes sence..From what i read 1 grain pollen plus 1 white hair equals 1 seed..so by adding flour to the pollen1 teaspoon pollen to 4 teaspoons flour..that will spread the pollen grains apart for more use. Thanks for the Kind words..you too will do great..Just read..read..read..then apply..this is Fun stuff..thanks again :48:

Okay..other then my Male chamber..I have some more collection going on I thaught I would share with you..When I put the paper in the Male Chamber to catch pollen..I had to clip some branches to get the paper to sit somewhat level..and those clips..i placed in a Mason jar with alluminum foil over the top..I then put this manila folder on top..on account i cant see the pollen very well on white paper..will go to hobby store and buy some dar GREEN card stock for the next Male ..and placed this one behind the Television..get minn daylight..the other bundle is from My White Widow LST..and same thing just placed under a window in the Kitchen..Has yet to start dropping pollen..which is good cause i was worried He was in the flower room for the first two weeks..Im going to smoke my Bong now

Can you store the pollen and if so,,for how long? I have been woundering how you collect pollen from the male. I was wanting some seeds from my first grow of my plants and was woundering the best way to go about it. Wasnt sure if I should just let my 1st crop flower male and female together,, to collect seeds. What are your thoughts?

thanks for stopping in Cowboy..here Hold this:bong1: while I try and answer you..

yes the pollen can be stored for up to 18 months..but loses its viability..I have the "Cannabis Breading Bible" by Greg Green..may want to get one..great stuff..I only plan to use in for the next few months..I have more Males comeing from diffrent strains. so will play some more with them as well..I am not for leaveing a Male in to pollente a whole grow and here is why...First you get a ton of seeds in your weed..and second when plant is produceing seeds the production of thc..the stuff we want..slows down..makeing the plant less potant..IMO..there for like and am practacing with solective pollention..Now the Plant "someday" i will pollenste the whole plant..But she is small. after i collect the White widow pollen..Ill store it in freezer untill ready to use..and then will only pollenate lower branches..

as for my thaughts my friend I am new to this so I am learning as well..I would say..and only cause you saked me..that keep the Male in the flower room for 2 weeks..then take the clippings as i have above..the only help I can give is to have you fallow the rest of the way..I have done my research and am appling what i read..thats all..and i dont just get info from this site..although there a great deal of good stuff here..I have enjoyed the Books..seems I can find what i want a lot faster..lol..but Im old school and just getting use to this HIGH tech crap..it sure is cool tho:hubba: Merry Christmas my friend and thanks again for spending some of your Christmas in my shed:ciao:

is the pollen falling as expected ?and are you pleased with the results so far ,,,cause judging by the size of them gonads im sure there will be plenty :48:

 

[4u2sm0ke]

so far so good..Think I will try TCVG method with tin foil on the next Male..so lets start with HiM:giggle:

 

[4u2sm0ke]

Here he is dropping pollen like mad..and am pleased with this Box..and not sure how long he will drop for so Im learning as we grow here..If he is still dropping when the first female is ready then she will join him for a day or so..but the Lucky female has only been in for a week now..should have started one a bot earlier..but thats part of learning and my note takeing,,will make the next one Tho..enjoy

 

[UKgirl420]
