alright so i got some male pollens stored in a container without the airtight but i hope it woulda work. i am growing outdoors so i dont have the mobility to move my plants. got a white widow male and a northern lights female. and some other strains flowering as well. i am planning to pollinate the bottom part only would it pollinate the other branches as well, or worst my other plants? and if i started brushing it (pollinating it) in what condition should i be doing these? should i prevent having wind and rain? can i wrap a plastic a few hours or a day just so it wont fcked my other plants?
 
Mix it with flour that has been baked (to kill the micros)- this will weigh the pollen down and make it less likely to go floating around once applied. The better the weather, the better this will work, BUT if you do put plastic on it, only leave it for a half hour or so. I tried this when I was growing some auto aks- I fucked up and left the bags on for about a week and mold developed. I went ahead and chopped the branches so they were the only moldy ones. Good luck with the impregnation!
 
The method I found best for myself outdoors is a small glass container along with an artist's paintbrush. I collect my pollen from the male I am using place into the glass container allow to dry a bit, lightly tap the pollen sacs to get them to give up their pollen. Then I go to the plant mark with string or some other way of identifying the branch. The next step is to take your paintbrush and dip it into the pollen and lightly brush the pollen across the pistils where I want seeds. For best results you want a calm day and totally dry plants.
I think you will find this as a very easy and no fail method. I just did this last week and do not see any other areas that were pollinated in the process.
Happy Growing
