Don't waste time growing them out for pollen. That's down the road a bit. Pop some more beanz and find some females.

I say smart move keeping them. You could be collecting in just a few weeks and those stalks are massive! Could be a good breeding tool, at least for personal chucks. Rub the stem, what's it smell like? Sticky?

I must say they are very sexy for being males :weed:
:clap: Good job though...your growing techniques are definitely working :mrgreen:
 
LAST Question...for now. if i collect the pollen in the popper capsule, how long can i keep it in the freezer? I swear the big one on the right smells like fresh oranges and its obviously have great plant structure, i came this far and i just popped a few more beans so i might as well finish what i started. Any advice would be great!!!

I've kept pollen for almost a year in my fridge in a thermos with no issues

I buy brown lunch sacks and cut them up and fold them into a little paper envelopes. I keep as many packets as I can and each thermos and I've never had any get out of the packets

Good that's what you want to hear when looking for a good male to breed. Trichs and a sweet smell are exactly what your looking for in a male.

Those boys are so male, Spanky and Alfalfa have both invited them into the He-Man Woman Haters Club.
