Nice Little vid if you're still looking to know how to collect and store some pollen. To answer your earlier question, as long as the male plant looks healthy and vigorous any pollen collected from anywhere on said plant will be good pollen (but the top of the plant's pollen sacs are the easiest). The important thing with storage is making sure you keep it dry. I would put it in a black film capsule and then put the capsule in a short mason jar with a rubber seal and just to be extra safe put a small bag of silica gel in the jar as well just to absorb any moisture that should get through the while stored in the freezer (how I store my seeds) Hope this helps and good luck.

Many thanks for that Humming Bird, clarification and sound advice! Maybe one should have pollen at all times?
Thinks again, raid store's for small glass phials!

Pink Porn!
Jeez,, Henrietta is going to have a cola like the provebial 'Donkey Dick' on her at the end?
Thank goodness I've only got the two plants in the tent!
The boy's are ok, Blood Stone Sperm everywhere!
Stone Drag's are seeding in an another corner.
Feeeding Schedule:.......................
All plants have been flushed over the the last week, those in the greenhouse are now on water and tomato feed only (12.9.9) every other watering.
Henrietta and Opal (having been flushed!) are now back on:
RJ 6ml
FM 2ml
BG 2ml
BB 4ml
I knocked the Bio-Heaven off the sched........coz the local grow shop didn't/hasn't get Acti-Vera in, in time.
Apart from the Bio-Bloom (for added P and K) I'm still intriqued how much more stretch, I'm going to get? I will keep them on a veg!
Thanks TaNg, Sort ur water out and you are almost there!
I will suss the new rep system .....soon? 
I've had no pH problems at all this run, so I've dropped the Al-M- as well!
Onwards and Upward's?
Mikey.

Hi mikey
Just managed to catch up a bit, wow you've been busy.
Jesus got enough pollen on that male, I've never seen it at that stage (not tried breeding) once I see balls that i get the axe.
I haven't have to do that in quite some years, fems are just so convenient.
I'm sure gonna be interested to see what some of your crosses turn out like and will keep my fingers crossed you end up with something truly amazing.
Will you be trying to stabilize your crosses or are you just going for F1 hybrid crosses?
I will try to pop by a little sooner next time but I have been a little preoccupied of late.
Peace bro

Yes, and also busy dealing with other stuff that seems to reers its ugly head as well! (shite happens boy!)
Day 50
Henrietta is going to be such a good stone dragon? (Fingers crossed?)
The as yet, unamed seeded female is doing well too, now she is back in the tent.
Not sure how/when to collect pollen from the boys still in the greenhouse? I'm told that the best time to collect is on a dry day, low humidity............blah, blah blah! I'm not sure I want to start breeding........but it does interest me!
Oh! There is opal the bubblegum (same age).........
