I’m not that bad, but it’s like I’m sending smoke signals!

I’ve taken Stocky down and his flowers are drying and I have to say, I was expecting more. And maybe they’re will be more pollen than I’m thinking once everything dries. Either that or my Froyo girl was an exceptional lady.
Flexine, her daughter, Wee Runty and Sunday Driver are all covered in pollen. I’m going to wait till next weekend to clean to the tent and the girls, that way if they’re still building buds i can kick up the pollen and get any new calyx before I clean them up.
I have learned I need to either invest in or DIY a sizeable “Still Air Box”. This pollen is everywhere. While a S.A.B. won’t help while he’s blooming when you’re taking the flowers down and drying them it should cut spread dramatically.
I’m supposed to be getting a new phone soon so hopefully there will be more pics.

Well we’ve had an accident. My back room can get a bit cramped when I’m starting new seeds and as such, it gets difficult to navigate sometimes and while dancing(not literally) around the new pots, I lost my balance and my foot came down on the edge of the container of collected male flowers. Which of course, flung them everywhere, flowers, stems, pollen, all of it. I managed to save probably half of what I had so the pollen harvest won’t be near as good as it should have been, but there will still be plenty of pollen to send back to you @JustANobody, I’m only going to keep a small vial, the rest is yours to do with as you see fit. Couple more days drying and it should be ready to fly!

I hope you landed ok. Last time I took a tumble, I ended up with a broken wrist.

No sir, please keep as much as you’d like, a small vile is plenty for me dude. I appreciate the work you are doing. I hope you are OK. The plants and pollen are just that, you’re health is more important.

I didn’t hit the ground or anything, thankfully, i just confetti cannoned the dying bin. Even with a whole room, I need more room.

Oh OK good, I thought you tripped and fell and all that fun stuff. Glad that’s not the case.

I wasn’t quite that high, but you’re not wrong. All these crime shows the wife watches and the biggest thing I’ve learned from them, Don’t Fall Down! Accidentally or not, Do Not Fall.

Told y’all there would be more pics once I got a new phone, so, as promised here are some shots from tonight. No whole plant pics, they’re not very happy with me right now.
Pregnant and Frosty!

Oooh they did NOT appreciate the post orgy clean up! There was a lot of complaining “THAT’S COLD!” and some very dramatic flopping to the side that earned them some bamboo stakes and tied into position. Sunday Driver was so upset she had to be caged (tomato cage lol!) Then the tent got cleaned, everything but the light tonight. The clean up and re supporting thinned out a lot of the undergrowth and opened them up for some nice airflow.

I forgot to mention there are 0, and I mean ZERO new white pistils forming, meaning we are 100% pollinated.
Hey @JustANobody the pollen is looking good. Hit me in the DMs with and addy and I’ll get a nice letter headed out. Don’t open it anywhere near your flower girls, just to be safe. There shouldn’t be any loose pollen but ya never know.

I figured something was wrong, I hope it wasn’t disastrous, and easily remedied.
These calyx are getting FAT! And there is a definite difference between Flexine and Wee Runty. Flexine has the typical Frost while Wee Runty looks more dingy. I’ll try to get more pics to show what I mean tomorrow. Those are all Flexine in the last pics. So Very happy that she’s the one I saved.

So here’s the comparison shot, Wee Runty on the left, Flexine on the right.
I know there are variations seed to seed within a strain. It just surprises me every time how dissimilar sisters can be.

That’s one on the right is very similar to the cut I had that was very nice and everyone liked.
How’s her smell? She had long finger like buds opposed to fat nugs.

I’m worried about the pollen. It isn’t so much dusty any more, its more grainy. I know I’ll have plenty of seed to send back I’m just not sure how viable the pollen is anymore. I’ll still send some I just think it may have gone bad.
