I got a quick question how long is pollen viable for if its just siting out in the open air from a past grow..
I wiped everything off that im using with cleaner and i moved to a new place but im wondering if some was still in a fan or something could it still be potent enough to pollenate all of my fairly decent sized lady cause thats what it looks like..
Im gonna pull my hair out this is the second time this has happend and ive cleaned everything the best i can so thanks in advance to anyone that can shed some light on this bullshit :evil:
 
ive been searching on google for the last 45 mins and i find all kinds of answers some say a couple days some say a couple weeks to several weeks then some say several months.
im really stumped on this one i get so many mixed answers i know pollen can last a long time if stored properly but i cant get a straight answer on how long pollen stays viable just floating around ..widow87

I had a pollen release from a hermie 2 grows ago. I didn't clean my flowering room. Next grow I had 8 very large ladies in my flowering room. The room was so packed the ladies were touching the walls. I got worried about pollination and was paranoid about it the entire grow. I harvested a couple of weeks ago. I've been smoking my harvest ever since and NO SEEDS! Humidity, heat and light will quickly degrade most if not all the pollen. If you've given your room a good cleaning don't worry about it, you'll be fine. :weed:
