Probably from banging it back and forth etc. makes sense. That looks great
Thanks dude! I have probably 6 or so envelopes of mixed pollen to give out and then another 5 or so to keep for me. I’ll start putting the pollen into vials later this week and vacuum sealing with descicant. I’d like to be able to give out about 10-20 bags of the mixed pollen to the community.
Awesome idea!! That’s a lot of pollen! It gets crazy in there huh lol glad you got a respirator , working with it gets real sneezy at times ! Really have killed this bro
Now if I could just get a damn like
Dude I’m amazed by the amount of pollen. I’m going to let the fans do there thing for a bit, probably clean the filter cover, and then run a few more days and then get in there and clean. The amount of pollen on the light alone is wild.
The respirator is key imo, I won’t be doing that again without one. Once the males really started to drop I felt off for a day because of all the pollen
Ya no doubt, you can get respiratory infections and stuff too if it’s too bad! Haha I know the lights just get punished,tip em and poof! Clouds! I remember a few breeders saying they got pretty sick from it, I should have mentioned it early on, my bad. I keep forgetting to order a pollen sifter, I’ve always just done it my way but that will save hours for sure.
I’m going to be real honest. I haven’t spent more than 10 minutes or so collecting each time.
It’s the separation that drives me nuts
Well let me tell you lol.
I gently tilted the tray got the buds into a corner and gently brushed them into trash. Super lazy easy pollen collection.
I needed to screen 3 times. 1x with the screen size you used; then twice with an icing duster (aka: pollen shaker, aka: powder duster).
I’m jealous
It’s pure laziness on my part bud lol
make sure your letting it dry BEFORE piling it up like that, also make sure and clean it ASAP after you have a round on the glass.
dry+cleaning=good safe pollen to store.
peace …
Lol, you get use to it.
Oh yea bud, that was just to collect and put into an “envelope” spread out and moved daily. All that in a chamber with descicant. Does that seem like a solid process to you? Any flaw I’m not seeing?
Also be careful with pets and random trays Or parchments of pollen. I did ALL that work trying to get a few grams of viable boo pollen, left it on the table to dry, came downstairs to the parchment on the floor , partially chewed …. No joke. All gone
Lol yea I don’t leave it out the cat would be in it asap
Here’s some pics of pollinated Mango Hashplant buds. I super cropped what I think is a stretch indica female. I have cuts of that one too.
These are my 2 favorite indica learners.
Great suggestion with the metal coffee filter @Trickster !
