Ok, so I have these mystery indica seedlings, my friend popped the 2 indicas, I got a male as well, I'd like to keep this strain around pending the outcome of the buds, my question is what is my best way to go about controlling the pollen off the male as to not infect my other plants, yet I still need to get it to flower, and is it safe to have it in during the first couple weeks of flower? I only want to pollinate one of the girls , as I want to keep around that strain.

i would have to make a completly diff grow room.To give you an example pollen can float from miles away the other way ive seen it done is flower the male somewhere different and take off the pollen and put it in a bag then put that bag over a branch and seal it tight. to give you seeds on 1 branch

well first off.. if they r from different bags then they may be differnt strains.. there for, when u breed them they will cross if they arent the same weed creatng a diff strain from the both... it could be beter, it could be worse... u would need a diff room from ur gargen for him to develop cuz if u miss it, ur done.. ur crop could be all seeded and ruined... so put him in a closet away from ur room under sum cfls or sumthing... when he opens, wrap a bag over his pollen and shake.. cloect the pollen and store in freeze.. it will last quite awhile... dont wear those clothes in ur grow room... huck the male cuz u have its pollen, wash thereoughly of the room.. when ur ready, bring up a girl in flower... wrap the bag around a branch and shake.. leave it on a day or 2... take off the bag and shake it agn in a "new, fresh" bag so any acess will drop off cuz ur trying to keep it in jus that branch, rather then ur whole crop... bring her down and let her finish.. if u do it rite u can make that single branch seeded and not the rest of that plant, let alone ur whole crop...
