I never have. That's why I collect pollen myself. I picked my 2 males from very dank bud that I smoked.

Yea there is definitely a need for it. I think the main issue is preservation. It's hard to keep pollen viable for long enough.

Collection and storage suggestions? I am looking at some cross possibilities but timing is an issue it seems.

I collect by leaning my man over a glass picture or mirror and scrapping it up 3-4 times per day

store to a small medical bottle with a teaspoon of rice

mark it well ...with date ..lol

good luck

best is to use a quarantine area some distance from the females,

apply with cotton bud, allow a minimum of a month for the seed to develop

its not for the faint of heart

for fem`d polled I`d GA3 a plant after cropping it

if it grows I`d veg or flower it again right away if you ga3 too much they hermi and you can grow them out for pollen

or just grow a male

Actually did some auto mazar x c99 got some seeds I`ve not pop`d and have a bag of pollen from a male auto mazar but unless it was a lanky sativa I think autos normally stay too short for me to get the most out of the space I have so don`t think I`ll be using that unless I`m making some birdseed to throw around the local grassy spots

I put the pollen in a papper BAG then put it over the limb that I wount seeds on then the next day spray the bag with water then take if off that way you get no pollen but where you wount it.Just tye a string around the top of bag so it cant get out...ky

is why you gotta freeze it,

some can store it for many years,

tho use it in under 6 months is good,

as you get falling returns with time
I would love to know how any person can store pollen for maney years?i don't think nitgren would work like I save my dogs seamon.BUT THE dog stuff will last for 50 years or longer I bet.pot pollen is a different storey if it could be stored even for 3 years that person would be RICH over night.

there is more than one way to skin this cat :) another way is to wait for your pollen sacks to develop on the male you have selected, then cut the pollen sack open and harvest the pollen. this can be frozen for storage as mentioned by vostok.

Then for application:

mix the pollen with a little water on a saucer, and using a small paint brush, paint the water-pollen mixture onto the buds that you want impregnated.

Hope this is helpful :)

A well known method, for well over 10 years I've been doing this

is apply pollen with a cotton bud or ur finger wait an hour

then spray the plant well with water

this Kills all the spare pollen that escaped ur particular area

water ///damp kills pollen, thats why the life span is so short

good luck

I like to use those little small paint brushes, but basically do what you described above and my pollen was good for a year inside a sealed bag with rice in salad crisper. I also have used cotton swabs just like this recently, but rather the little brush.

Q-tips and a blunt container.
collect as many tips worth as you want and every time you want seeds just take one out and scrub the pet of the plant your want seeds on. This is good for small pollination, larger scale you need to collect more pollen than this method generally will.
