Big Job at the end, to clean it up for the next run, Gotta deactivate all of that splew… Fun Times Ahead !!! Start Collecting it Up Now… We need it in the community…

Right now at @JustANobody ‘ s house

[JustANobody]

Basically, shit is wild. I’ll do a collection tomorrow night. Any tips?

[Trickster]

@DougDawson Help…

[DougDawson]

Oooh, collection time is here. What do you want to know bud?

[JustANobody]

What’s the best way to collect the pollen to get a good amount to dry, store, and pass around? I have a bunch of descicant for drying. I have parchment paper for envelopes.

[Onobigrower]

I think a very dry plastic tray can help. Place them close to the males and give them a few shakes so the pollen can fall, of course, with the ventilation completely turned off. Then you can add it with a brush that is still virgin and then store it

[JustANobody]

Looky here.

Once this is ready I’ll do a couple of wiki giveaways for Mango Hashplant open pollination pollen

You’re going down the rabbit hole quick! But good job dude this is fun to watch, also did you come to a conclusion on how to collect your he pollen a bit?

[JustANobody]

Yea I need a brush. I lined a tray with parchment paper and then used an edge to collect it together and flick out the male pollen sacks. Scooped it into a parchment envelope and into a sealed container with descicant beads and into the fridge. A brush would get me more.

I’m going to do another collection tomorrow morning.

[Hashpants]

Try some not in the fridge too!

[JustANobody]

I’ll do that with tomorrow’s batch. What’s the thinking behind that? This is my first time so educate me please. I plan to collect tonight, tomorrow, Saturday, Sunday, and then Monday thebmakes go to the chickens.

I shook some of the females and they put off more pollen than the males!

[Hashpants]

Colder means a slower dry and less staying power? Faster low humidity dry would create a harder envelope around the pollen grain ?

[JustANobody]

Oh interesting. Slower even with the descicant?

[Hashpants]

Cold trumps dessicant

[JustANobody]

Gotcha. They’ve only been in there less than 5 min. Should I pull them out?

[Hotrods_and_hounds]

This is interesting, if I could ask can we get pics also?

[JustANobody]

Probably not it’s messy and I’ll be the only one around trying to do everything before work.
