My frozen pollen seems to be working on the Purple Haze. I can already see the seeds forming!
Cool, I put mine in plastic bags stored in same area in refrig as seeds. Should be fine I think. Currently I know I have Shiva Skunk, Critical Kush, Purple Haze, Blue Dream, Chernobyl, and some VN Sat fems; should be 1 or 2 in there to hit with either Conspiracy Kush or Chernobyl; The WOS SA Kwazulu still waiting on sex though I think its a fem too.

This last go around I let a few of my male presex flowers actually open up and I took a Q-tip, swabbed up the small bits of pollen in and around the individual open male flowers, then "painted" the pollen onto individual pistils. I then destroyed my males before they were in full out flower. You aren't gonna get a thousand seeds my method, but a few viable seeds and less chance of seeding an entire plant when that isn't the goal.

And if you mean beforehand, a good old stem rub, plant structure, flower structure and the presence of trichomes seem like good starting places. What says Mo and you other experienced chuckers?

BTW, here is a pic of a few swelled, pregnant calyxes that are presex flowers. This is one of the plants I messaged you about Mo, wondering if I could pollinate the presex flowers while the plant was still in veg. You were correct sir. I include a closeup of the bundle of joy too.

It's not gonna produce a wad of seeds, but I pollinated several plants and sites on each, so I should have a nice little collection from this.

Thanks, yeah I had some males on one side of veg room and noticed their male presex flowers had opened and spilled out a nice little pile of pollen on a leaf below it. So, I got to thinking if a presex flower can produce pollen, why can't a female presex flower be viable and pollinated? So I messaged the seed guru Mo and inquired about it and of course, he told me to go for it.
