Nah bro... just garlic male pollen to 2 branches on my prized lemon skunk. Took it out of the room dusted the branches taped paper bag on the 2 branches took it off 5 days later and now a couple weeks from the finish line. Didn't accidently pollinate my whole garden either hehe.
Done it with plastic bag & a soda straw , only take a day cycle

thats what im worried about.. getting pollen all over the place..
has anyone tried to harvest pollen in a civilized manner that care to share some tips?? i feel like i'm just waiting to shake some loose pollen into a bag.. and then cover that bag over my desired female plant while she's budding.
Cut a male branch about to drop ,
12 x 12 " cardboard
cover with foil
poke hole in center
place large bowl under the square
place cutting into hole so stem in water
Wait , pollen falls on foil collect with credit card
Of course place a small lite above male to keep alive
Will drop for over a week

can i take the sacks as they are now and just put into a jar, or should i give it another few days??
Usually takes at least 3 weeks for them to start dropping pollen once put in 12/12. I wait until they are really close, then I remove the plant and put in another room as Far away as possible under an led flood light on 12/12. It doesn't take much light to keep the male alive and dropping pollen once he is close. When all the sacks start opening, I hold a baby food jar under them and shake the pollen into the jar, branch by branch. Leave the jar in a dark dry area for the pollen to dry(pick out all the plant matter first) for 2-3 days, add desiccant packs, and refrigerate. When your desired female is at about 25-30mdays of 12/12, turn off the fans, and dust a top and some lowers with a q-tip dipped in your pollen. A decent top that would yield about an 1/8 of bud will give you 100-300 seeds.....no need to do the whole plant unless you're in the seed business.

Seen a video on IG By deadpanhead where he pulls hands fulls of sacks & runs them thru his kief screen , scrapes it up with a credit card like he's snorting it ,then loads into a vial with a few rice grains

Yeah, I like to wait until it's ready to drop on it's own. I have space and patience, so no need for me to try and fuck wth nature. I have tried to force it and got pollen that wasn't viable, so I just do it the full proof way when I find a male that I think is worthy.

The close up is garlic breath #1 I'm pretty sure it's a mendo leaner maybe some cookies. The whole bed picture the big colas flopping around are my garlic 3 pheno which leans gmo. First time trying an organic bed out.... Going to order the trellis next time lol. This is day 49...
looks fucking great. well done
