I wouldn’t say I’m not interested, but I don’t have anything going now and I don’t think it would fit into my plan for this coming season… although… I was planning on running some BOG f2s and BOG adjacent seeds here people were kind enough to give away. Hmm…

How long does pollen keep in a freezer?

I believe it will only remain viable in the open for a few days, possibly a week +/-

In the fridge should be about 3/4 weeks
And in the freezer last a really long time.

The viability goes down tho with thawing and freezing, so if you collect a bunch of pollen, or even a small amount, it would be better to pack small amounts into individual packets or containers.

That way if you go to use some you can leave the majority of it in the freezer and just take out and thaw what you need.

I had successful pollination in 2022 with pollen stored in the fridge for 10 weeks. It was shared to me by @Maddawg. It was in paper sachets, sealed in vacuum seal type plastic with desiccant pouch inside. It made a lot of seeds.

I’ve successfully pollinated with pollen stored in the fridge for months to a year. Key is drying it and removing any fine debris from plant material.
Storing it in the fridge in a glass canning jar using the ring but not the lid. I replace the canning jar lid with coffee filter material and I add intant rice as a dessicant.
Toasted flour is also a nice trick to add to the pollen before storing. I don’t do that but many do.

I’m back again as I promised last night. However tonight there will be three (3) prizes (3 different winners) to be given away to the lucky members who have their numbers drawn.

Prize 1 is a pack of my S1 Cap Junky photo fems which can be won by any member in the USA or Canada.

And no deep sighs and groans for all you guys and gals outside of the USA and Canada because I have an identical prize just for you. I will say this twice, once here and once below. YOU MUST PUT YOUR COUNTRY NEXT TO YOUR NAME so I am able to pick the winners.

This third prize is a breeders 5 pack from Copa Genetics of their Project 25 seeds courtesy of @GCBudz who shared them with me recently. These are regular seeds. To qualify for these seeds you must have an active journal / thread on Overgrow.com. TO SIGNIFY THIS AFTER YOUR COUNTRY ADD THE WORD JOURNAL. If you do not add JOURNAL I won’t be able to add your number to the drawing for the Copa seeds.

IF you put the word JOURNAL next to your country (and I will check) and you do not have a journal you won’t be permitted by me to enter any more of my giveaways. Cause that’s just wrong.
You Must Put your Country next to your name.

So three items available.
When you edit the Wiki it should look like this…Either like #1 or #2

You can still win the first two packs. Sounds like this is just for the copa pack unless I misread

I want to give @Mr.Christmas a hug for how he put Journal in there. If I can figure out how he did it I’ll request that next time I do a giveway requiring a journal. A huge time saver.
