I use a air brush. Took the next logical step from "get an artist brush..". Use as fine cone nozzle, 15-20 psi. Go to every flower site puff-puff.

Uusally I put a plastic bag over the main cola, pollenate all the other flower sites.
Grow plant and pick main cola at peak ripness for "quality control purposes". Then continue plant at least two more weeks, depending on strain, to get to mature seeds. Seeds take longer then buds!

I store pollen in 3"x5" glassine envelopes (like stamp collectors use) in a plastic recipe box in frig. (w/ my seeds). Have found pollen viable at least 5 years. Not sure after that.
