pollen collecting question

Hi all,
This is my first post and I wish it was under better circumstances but oh well.My first grow has not gone very well,I had 3 plants (bag seed) started but had many issues like heat problems,slugsand some others.When it was all said and done with I ended up with one plant.Well of course it ended up being male.Now to my question,I really liked this bud and I want to breed it with another plant(just started a new grow today with 12 seeds)I want to collect the pollen as soon as possible so I can get this guy out of my face.I am 15 days into flowering and I am wondering if it is to early to collect the pollen.I will be cutting off the branches and putting them in water with bags around the male flowers until they open but I don't want to cut them to early and have them die before the sacks open what do you guys think?Thanks for the help and sorry for the long post.

I am trying to post pics but I keep getting a message at the bottom that says a pop-up was blocked and I can't figure out what to do please help.

Turn off your pop up blocker. The upload bit IS a popup.

Yea I had the pop-ups blocker off so I just clicked the button a bunch of time and it opend up so I think I have it figured out now thanks

is it just me or is there nothing on those pics?

Theres an image in it. I use photoshop and the pics came up.

Maybe this will help

All of the pods are not going to pop at once. wait until one starts to open then you cut it. Even if you did collect pollen the right way and store it the right way, it would only last for about 3 months tops. This should be more then enough time if you are going indoors...
