you will see a difference in the sacks as they prepare to pop. Once mature and ready to drop pollen they will almost drop so to speak. the little pod will hang and then pop a little later after that. So the best time is to watch and as they start to hang clip em. Thats usually when i do and the pollen is good. Some wait a day after they start to hang depending on the strain of course to gather the sacks. You almost have to watch one pop to get a good idea when to collect them for the most pollen. I was going to say that if you want through the day place them out side but i remembered that you are growing in hydro. Makes things a little harder to just move em out side lol :)

Great info there bro!^^^ Think Imma try that method instead of waiting for them to pop/drop/shake as I will have prob. 5 diff. males stains in my breeding tent...will be easier too! snip em' , pand put em' in their own lil container or baggie....

If you go to do this glass is always the best place pollen. It will stick to the inside of the baggies, plus baggies can tear and let in unwanted moisture. another thing that you may want to do is keep the vial in a bowl of rice or something like that to make sure no moisture will get in.

since you have the ability to take the males out, i would let one out as soon as i knew it was male to get an idea on when, how and what it looks like before it pops its fun juice.

hmmm, interesting...didnt think about that..i know about the rice though..So get like a lil glass tube/container with a cover/lid??? I also have a piece of glass from a 8" x 8" picture frame to collect it on, with a mini mesh strainer to separate the flowers if I were to shake the plant....Where do you think I can find little glass containers w/lids?? no taller than 2"-3"...thanks!
