Time frame til pollen drops?

[thebigearl]

What's an average, expected time frame for males to release pollen from start of flowering (12/12)?

I'm a week into flower and just found out I have 2 boys! Which is great, I only wanted 1 but that's ok. (6 seeds, so 4f and 2m).

I leave in a week and will be gone for 2 weeks, but before I leave I will put the 2 males and one female into the "mating tent" to do their thing. So they will be been in flower for a month when I return home.

Males finish sooner. I dont think it will be ready that soon but should be starting.

Have you thought about selective pollination or saving pollen?

They’ll start releasing pollen between 3rd and 4th week of flowering. You can separate them and collect pollen or put them in the room with femalea when they get to 4th week of flowering. Earlier will reduce the number of seeds, later will stretch the maturing time for seeds.

I'm ok with sacrificing a whole female to be pollinated. I want many seeds!
Id like to collect and store some pollen for later selective pollination to cross breed.
