Open pollination

I have I big breeding tent and and have selected 8 cuts of my favorite females and have selected 2 make my plan is to just flip the lights to 12/12 and let them do there thing just as if they would in nature my question is should I let the females flower just a little sooner before the make to insure they get pollinated at the right time or will it matte my plan is for lots of seeds that is my goal

I just did this recently, in fact I just hung one of the seeded plants yesterday. Typically you can just throw them in together and the males will flower well ahead, they seem to sense each other and do their thing naturally. I put my fems in 5 days before the male this time and it worked well. Once the male was ready to let pollen go I let it dry out a bit so the pollen is really dry and left the fans on which I wouldn't normally do if I were just collecting the pollen to hit fems later. I was able to pollinate the 2 plants and collected the rest for later hits. Will be pulling this one below tomorrow night, it's full of F2's :D
