When Do Male Plants Release Pollen?

I know that every seed and grow has its own story, but does anyone know if there is an average time in the flowering stage that male plants release their pollen? :-?

At what point should I start to panic?

Thanks in advance for any replies/advice!

mistaphuck is right, it happens quick. Once the balls turn to flowers, you are looking at the pollen getting released almost immediately. Even before they are open it is possible for some pollen to get out, but it wouldn't be much. Best bet is to isolate if not destroy them once their manhood has been confirmed.

I started to see what seems to be balls starting to form on one of my plants today and it is the 8th day of flowering. I knew I had a little bit time before they blew. I just wanted to see if there was make sure that I had a few more days to ensure that it is, indeed, a male plant.

I am definately going to isolate it from the other plants as HomeGrown advised, to play it on the safe side.

Thank you
