If you can pluck the male flowers with tweezers right before they are going to burst open.

Watch others to see how long it takes for that to happen.

Store male flowers in a container to let them open and dry out.

Once you have enough collected, sift the male flowers and pollen with a fine sieve.

It sounds like he is late hence the pods on the floor this is why i said paint brush unless he just worded it wrong !! But yeah if u can catch it at the right time p collect whole pods in a glass jar as bill said if not just use paint brushes and smear your ladies!!

Thats what I figured, I know that it is still too early for him to be done.

There should be plenty enough to still pluck some unopened ones.

Pukka bro , get a sandwich bag stick it over the plant , hold it tight at the bottom and shake the fuck out of it , you will get loads in the bag , then use a paint brush to dob it in the bag and brush whatever buds you want to breed with , or just open the bag up and let it go free lol , ive used the bag method loads , you can then seal it up and store it in the freezer for up to 3 months and use it on other females if you want more seeds :)
