None of them germinated, can't figure out what I did wrong. I soaked them just like every other seed. Even did a separate batch in a wet paper towel method after the first batch never popped.What happened to the Fookies seeds?

@Mohican do you store your pollen? Is it viable after storage? I am no chucker but I have some shark shock males and I want to throw it at my Orange Soda females. Any advice on when to bring the Male with the female? @BobBitchen any advice would be great. I would guess males mature faster ? The orange Soda is a 10/11 week strain so I am trying to figure out when to pollinate. How long does seed development take?
Thanks Alta

Not as a rule. Sometimes when I top off water I'll give it a turn.
Just lazy..lol
I cut my pollen with some baked flour or corn starch, about 8:1
Then store in the refrigerator in small viles.
I pollinate my females starting day 21 through day 28, gives beans 6 -8 weeks to mature.

I always used raw flour, makes sense that it would be more effective baked. Do you bake the corn starch?

I've only used corn starch once when I was out of flour, I don't think I baked it.
As far as how effective baking the flour is, not sure, but I don't see a downside.

I usually have my pollen only last about 9 months to a year, I’ve heard it can last up to two years. It occurred to me when you posted that, maybe that’s why.

I can't speak to longevity of pollen storage, I have only collected pollen to use within a month or two for planed chucks.
I've also read 2yrs viability, I have no reason to doubt it.
