Both the scarabs were male so I took them out the tent and set them off to the side til yesterday I went to chop em and noticed I had some pollen on my hands! I was pissed id like to save some and try it myself one day but it was too late. How do I go about collecting the pollen man? Whens the right time? They sat in the room for about 4 days

That sucks! Sorry bout the luck man.

I just wait until I see a sac or 2 pop and then chop them and hang them in a garbage bag. Shake it a few times over a couple days, dump it all into a sandwich bag, put that in a pill bottle, then toss it in the freezer.

Obviously you can amend that however you need to, but it's very easy. Just catch the pollen anyway you can and store it in the freezer.

The Scarabs usually show around 3-4 weeks, the ODST around 4-5 weeks for males. I usually run at least 4 at a time of whatever regs I run. Helps to judge keepers. Space constraints can really get in the way of that though. I guess I'll have to make some fems...

Yea, I use the bag to pollinate them too. Just put a little pollen into a small brown paper bag and tape it over a branch or nug. You want a separate area entirely for anything pollinated. Don't even bother trying in your flower tent.

Seed bud is still smokeable and it's better than what you can buy most of the time anyway.

You need a different space to breed or that's gonna keep happening.

Well trying to be rational again. Being in a not good state with 4x8 of space to work with..... need to forget about pollen for a while. Thanks for the help everyone. Won’t kill these. Ride it out. Replace fans, clean tent more, stay away from pollen.....

I did clean my tent with bleach after last grow because I had that diatemecous earth dust shit everywhere. Bleached the tent. Didn’t touch the fans. Shit. Has to be from the fans.
