Best way to know exactly when to collect pollen is to closely watch a pollen sac as it matures.
It will swell and turn yellowish just before it opens and drops the pollen, if you watch one go all the way and open you will know what it looks like just before it opens ... that is when you collect the balls.
Drop them in a small jar and close the jar with a bit of toiley paper held over the opening with a spasic band - this allows the pollen sacs to dry out and not go mouldy.
After a few days you should have plenty of pollen to apply to your girlz.
If you have the male far far away from the girlz, then if you keep it in a place with zero breezes or disturbances, you can wait for the pollen sacs to open and then collect the opened sacs, some pollen may have dropped but you should still get plenty that hasn't.
ooo looks like i have a little longer to wait then. Seems your CS method worked a charm though GOD
Ill take some pics of my boy later and IF i can get the bloody thing to focus that USB microscope you and Masterhemp use. Roughly how long does it take for those balls to split? I think its only been in a GOOD "male" like state for 1-2weeks so should i expect something soon?
I have my Jock horror auto (although does not posses auto traits as it ONLY turned when i made the switch to 12/12) and my white rhino should start showing balls soon too. Ill pollinate the Jock with Jock but im also thinking of getting the White rhino to mate with the Jock.....how do you think that would go? Ill call it "white horror"

hahah but i like my somewhat racist strain
I just want to finish them up as i got NO bud left and want to flower my G13 haze, SLH and Amsterdam bubblegum. Then ill give it a little break and do my Pineapple express and C99 hybrid
yer it took a while to work but im pretty sure Autos are just weird atm as the seedbank told me themselves that ALOt of the autos these days are not true autos.
Yer i had some hash and some shitty green a few weeks ago but that went fast. Probs good to have a break from it. Not to mention the green was a MASSIVE turn off from weed. It was some horrible stem like crap which wasnt flushed right nor dried or cured correctly. The has was a fuckign charm though
Miss my own shit 
Half an ounce in only a week is a lil much man lol. Your lungs be buggered hahaha.

Yeah i have breaks from it when i go for big jobs, but been hitting it hard lately as this mob dont test. Buggered?? never!!!!!!!
My bedtime routine is to rip a cone...quickly pack it again, and as you blow the smoke out get ready as then i smoke the new cone without breathing a seperate breathe of air, do this 3 or 4 times and you can feel it....by doing so sometimes i can get to sleep for longer than 3hrs, but yeah generally i automatically wake up every 2 hrs and go smash 4-5 billys pretty much with my eyes closed....if i dont i wont sleep again....so thats why i dont take big paying jobs that screen ya

hahaha sounds interesting.....another trick is punch a cone then take 3 or so dexamphetamine. You stay in the BEST mood/state of mind. Your thoughts are clear and can still do things VERY well. BUT your mind is still relaxed and you will what i could only imagine would be considered "Zen"
