Pollen for plant hybridizing

Hey everyone, I was curious about the pollen obtained from male plants. So after the pollen is taken from the plant, how long can it be stored in a dark location while remaining viable? Thanks

I've had luck with two month old pollen I kept refrigerated. Moisture is deadly to it.

The book I have says that Pollen can be stored in an airtight container in the freezer for several months. I don't know how many 'several' is.... but I would guess up to 6 months max.

yeah, just make sure its dry. i had one purple kush seed and it turned out to be a male. So i chopped it, put it in a bag, forgot to freeze it and i just found it and theres a shitload of mold in it so be careful
