Small amount of pollen , hand applied, from a container. Very little airborne. Stays mostly in the stall. Before any plants come in run a hot shower before so all surfaces are damp helps trap stray pollen as well. Stay well away from cooker room till you change and shower.
Thank you for the through explanation it actually helps give a better visual.

I made a post asking about this male but it got little attention. Completely new to chucking and all that but this fella seemed special so figured I would ask you chuckers, is he a keeper? I've affectionately dubbed him Prince because he's short and feminine but will def steal your girl . Chernobyl x Blueberry F4 or limonene queen. Showed sex early on and have read that could be less than desirable for males. EDIT: Also I'd like to add that his structure isn't that great kind of lanky, given it is young, not really any type of smell either, stem rub kind of smells peppery like salt and pepper with some dank mixed in. Would his natural purpling and resin production be enough to keep around ? I got about 12 more seeds of it and the one other plant I grew out was deep purple as well, but hermied on me

Unfortunately with males all you can do is make seeds with it and then grow out the seeds to see what the male has to offer.

Some beautiful males are not great pollen donors while the ugly male could put out stellar offspring.

Collect some pollen and give it a shot.

Does that actually work? I've always figure to put your males in a separate room/tent and flower em out as they only take like 2 - 3 weeks to drop pollen? If it does, it'd save a lot of space on my end...

It's a matter of timing but yes it works fine. White paper bags or proper pollen bags would let more light to the flowers, but I've never had a problem with not getting enough pollen or with stray pollen getting into the sensi. I finish them in the veg room for 1-2 weeks after bagging. The light timing doesn't stop them, they bust if you've bagged them at the right time. Make sure the bottom is sealed up really good. Take out to the garage to collect your pollen. Dry it and store it or use it fresh. Happy chucking!

Interesting! So basically it seems like, everything that won't fit in the bag, you cut off, then bag the "colas" and make sure it's taped up really well so nothing escapes. Then just keep em in the tent and wait a good 2 weeks until all the pollen has dumped, then just cut the stocks off and take the bag to an isolated location and collect the pollen?

Did u take any cuts? Could try smoking some unopened flower to get try and get a taste of what it might pass on.

Yes sir. Gratuitous use of painters tape.

Any of you cats tried hybritech's ExE hybridization tool aka reversal spray? Csi Humboldt was plugging it so I looked it up.

Supposedly 1 application and plant is reversed, but its not sts. Stuff is pricey but if it works that is so much cooler than cs. I guess sts is similar but this stuff is proprietary so no idea what it is. Just curious if its legit worth price.

What's the price? How much do you get? How much do you need?

Is this the "nanosilver"? James Loud talked about it. He's been using it after his friend had great results. It's on his most recent podcast - or the one before that.
