size of Balls?

[Grow_4_us]

I was wandering up to what size do the balls of an Indica usually get "before" they start to open?
Heres a few pics of some that are about two or three milimeters in size so far.

Those in the first pic will be open within 48 hours. As soon as they start to flop over you are basically in the 'get this thing away from your girls NOW' mode.

Thanks for that bit of info Stinky. If I had known that before, my last ladies wouldn't have been violated.
OTOH, if they hadn't been violated, I wouldn't have the crop of what promises to be a killer cross that I have going now. Que sera sera. Still, good to know.

Okay, I thought this was about something else. How many guys looked down when they read this?

LOL!!LOL!!

Thanks stinky can I just remove some of them to let the others grow for more pollen?

[stinkyattic]

You're after pollen?
Yeah you can take them off as they open and save them in an envelope for a few days and then use that to pollinate, or store it long term in the freezer until you need it.

Yes, I'm wanting to produce some seeds for after year I would still be able to produce that strain.
I have the male in the flower room with a sativa female that I'm not wanting to get polinated by that strain yet so I'd like to catch them before they open to store them for when the female plant of that strain flowers I can polinate her.So I'm guessing that as soon as they start to plop over to remove them is that when??Or around what size?
