When Do Males Start Producing Pollen?

At what age do male plants start producing pollen? What's the window of time I have to pluck the males from my garden before they start spraying their stuff all over my pretty ladies? How many days/weeks from introducing a plant to flower do I safely have to pull the males?

As early as 10 days after balls formed on my boy, you could see the white dusty stuff flying all over the place.

Thanks guys, you're great! Taking the high road and keeping the talk scientific was an option. But no one took the high road, instead crude sexual references were used. I love you guys! +Rep all around. Also thanks for answering the question.

They "produce" pollen as soon as you see the pods. So if you cut one open to see if its growth or a pollen sack around your females that can be bad. But they dont release there pollen until the pods are fully developed which is a week and a half 2 week thing.
