burst their pollen in your grow room they will
pollinate the female flowers. At the end of
flowering the bud will contain seeds. The seeds
should be darkish in colour. If they are white,
then they are not viable and you harvested them
too early. Wait until the end of flowering to
get your seeds. Your seeds will be in with the
bud. It takes quite a bit of time to sort them
out from the bud. If you want to use the seeds
in more than 2 years time store them in a
freezer. Before that time storing them in a
small film canister will work well enough.
POLLEN
Film canisters are a great place to store
pollen in. You can save pollen in a canister
for the next harvest. Pollen can be stored in
the freezer for around 18 months. The odds of
having pollen keep though are slim. Pollen is
best used up to 6 months. The pollen can be
extracted from the male flower as soon as the
flowers are ready to open. You will see the
male flower open out from its pod. It is best
to gather pollen after it falls from the pod
onto the leaves. Simply shake the pollen onto
the female flowers to pollinate them.
