Hey, Where i come from there is always lot of what they call pollen around. I dont think it actually is pollen its just a mis-used term for a differant type of hash. If its the same thing that i know i think that how they make it is just collecting the crystals off the buds by rubbing them over a grill of some type so they all fall through the grill and are collected afterward, compressed together and then you have "pollen". I maybe completly wrong on this one and in my opinion most of what people call pollen is actually just hash so that they can sell it for more.
