Pollen

[mrskitz]

post and packaging would mean youd havta charge quite abit for pollen,its very hard to store and keep fresh!storing seeds is completely different!very easy.it could be done but would be way too much hassle.its legal to own and sell seeds where i live at!next day delivery from holland to the states for example wouldnt be cheap.

i suppose,but storage and shipping would be pretty expensive which would make it not worth it finantially,plus youd havta deliver by hand to garuantee freshness,coz if you sent it by royal mail for example they may store it somewhere very warm which could cause condensation to build up in the jar or bag and destroy it,i think thats why ppl dont sell it,too much hassle.

you cud keep in little valies,like some seeds come in"world of seeds" and store in a freezer, and it wouldnt have to be frozen, while being shiped,would it.
it would last, a while after it came out of a freezer.
wouldnt it, if it was air tight?.
they is prob. a reason they dont do it.
is prob.
so we keep buying seeds, and dont make our own.
cos if every one had loads of beans, everyone would just trade all the time.

before you freeze pollen you should get as much moisture out of it as possible!pollen can stay viable at room temperature for a few weeks and some will go moldy!its not easy to keep it fresh but if stored perfectly can stay ok for years!its too much hassle tho imo.

well if ppl bought seeds coz they cant be bothered to make there own then why would they buy pollen?buying seeds is cheap and easy plus you can then grow ya own male and female plants and make a own strains!in some ways buying pollen would be good but its just, keeping it fresh and viable is hard!surely ppl would sell the stuff if it was easy!here in england and in holland and in other countries its legal to buy and sell seeds so it should be legal to sell pollen!so it cant be ppl dont sell it coz it illegal.

I had a good idea for seed trading anonymously in the toke & talk forum, but no one replied...
