I have read a lot about how people collect their pollen, store it, apply it to individual buds, whole plant, etc. I know there are a lot of good ways to do it. I just thought I came up with a very simple (KISS - Keep it simple stupid; My Motto for growing) method that really takes no skill at all. Remember, this is not supposed to be difficult, just some people like to make the simple things seem complicated, and they may seem like that to you until you try it!
So here goes.
First you have got your male plants. These are Lemon skunk and Great White Shark
Then shake them over a mirror or piece of glass, I happened to have a large black glass/mirror thing.
Then seperate all the plant meterial out of the mix
And then line up all the pollen with a razor blade
And then transfer into your storage device of choice. I do not need the pollen for very long, just long enough to pollinate the females growing at the same time, so I just put it in tin foil, wrap it up, label it and put it in a baggie.
Then to pollinate, I do whole plants, so I just put them in a home depot bucket together, put a lid/top on the bucket and pour some pollen in, blow it around and then leave to sit for a couple of hours.
I then spray it down with a spray botle full of water and return it to the flower room.
It really is that simple. No catches or hitches. I hope this helps someone who is not exactly sure where to start with their breeding.
Peace/Love/Joy
