Newbie to Boards, outdoor pollination question
Status report, just for the record: The male only developed small pod clusters on a couple of branches with no signs of any more, so three days ago I went ahead and put the selected female next to him and downwind on his balcony, shook him vigorously, and left them to the breeze. Every day (before my shower) I turned and jiggled him and turned the female slightly. I'm giving them a few more days together and then will dispose of the male (sorry, guy). Would rather do this early and limit the amount of pollen released for the sake of the rest of my grow or anyone else's nearby.
Question #1: Should I / can I save the few pollen pods in case it doesn't take? How?
Question #2: Should I keep the pollinated female separate or can she return to the harem (also outdoors)? Maybe after a good wash from the hose?
I <3 botany!
Comments, answers? Thanks.
