At what point does pollination stop?

Hey Dudes!!
I have an auto bagseed that I pollinated the bottom four branches of with pollen from another bagseed male. Using a small paint brush I dusted all the stigmas. That was last Tuesday and she has been inside since then because all my other girls are outside plants. They are just showing the very first signs of starting to flower.

I would like to take the auto outside and let her enjoy some of this full sun and very hot weather, but I am wondering if the pollen that is on the auto would pollinate the other girls outside. They are all within a few hundred feet of my place. Would all the pollen on the auto have been used up by now, or is there a safe time frame as to when it would be safe to put back outside?

Also, what type of seeds will I get when the auto produces them? Would they also be autos? From the looks of both plants, they looked like sativas.

You're good to go. If you're concerned lightly mist the area with water.

I pollinate and allow a minimum of 45-60 min before rejoining the crowd

before that I seal the deal with a spray of water or Neem Oil

water etc neutralizes the pollen ....fast

auto gene is recessive but if you got 2 of the same tribe

they be autos

good luck

Thanks Chef420 and vostok. She will get a spray of water then I will put her outside tomorrow morning so she can bask all day in the glory of the best fertilizer there is!!! The sun!!!

Nope, bagseed male as far as I know was not an auto!!

not an auto will mean you have to cross her again

to lock that recessive gene in

good luck

Let me see if I have this right vostok. The bagseed male will have photoperiod traits that are dominant over the auto traits, so the seeds that I get this time will have the bagseed male traits being dominant over the auto. When you say I will have to cross her again to lock in that recessive gene in, what does that mean? Will the seeds from my next cross be autos? I'm new to this self pollinating.

You will get a mix of auto and photo offspring. Select one that auto flowers and hit it again with pollen from the father again if you can save some.

Thanks whitebb2727. So you are saying the seeds I will get this time will be both a mix of autos and photo? Then from those seeds, select an auto female and pollinate her with the original pollen? What type of seeds will I get from the second pollination?

Trying to wrap my head around this pollination stuff!!
