quick Pollen question

so i adopted a couple plants today that were chillin on my boy's balcony.
i get it back home, open it up and its huge flowering male next to a litttle female in the same pot. pollen came off as soon as i took the bag off. i sniped it and sealed it in the bag and tossed it. the female is being kept away from my crop, might just do away with her too.

this was in my living room, my plants are in the bedroom. you think any pollen could make it in there(about 25-30 feet away behind two doors)?.
and could i use lysol air spray to kill any pollen in the air?

help a brotha out.
peace

You should be ok. Pollen from a male could travel for miles on a good wind. If there isn't any yellow powdery dust on you fem then you should be safe.

I agree with Igthy, you should be ok. As long as you kept everything away from your grow area. That shit does travel though. Have you ever taken a male and gotten pollen out of it for pollinating? I did it in a room with no air movement and it was almost suspended in mid-air for about 15 seconds. Were you pissed at your friend for giving you a male and not saying anything about it?
