pollination happens once the male even looks like its got balls.
They will come all over the place wall, floors, outside, etc.
If you wait till the plants are big you crop is totaly knocked up.
save the biggest male and cover it with a plastic sack.
Once it has even looked like it got its rocks off on the bag.
Be real carefull take it out of the grow room. FAR FAR away
Take a fine painting bursh, pick up the pollen with the brush.
NOW place it in a bag, go into the blooming room with buds 1/2 way (no tricomes build up) and with a few bags place the brush in the bag , and move a little, place the cum laden brush in the bag an shake very little. Place the bag over the bud you want to knock up.
Do not worrry you will have them knocked up.
Place exta pollen in the frezzer and save for future use.
You can tell males real easy they are bigger than females.
Use extreem caution like most males it wants to cum at any time. Them little balls , get there rocks off at the lighest movement. Kinka like a Kennedy at a democratic convention.
Or Clinton at a family reunion.

It dosent matter when the pollination takes place as far as seed production. The seeds wont be any better or worse if its done early in the flowering cycle or later.

It takes a good 4 weeks for seeds to mature on the female tho, so the longer you wait to pollinate, the longer it takes to get mature seeds.

I have pollinated late in bloom for a massive seed run, then you have to wait until well after the peak harvest time until harvesting. Wait until the seeds turn from a whiteish/greenish color to a solid brown or tan color in the calyxes before harvesting. Fully mature seeds will almost fall out of the calyxes by themselves when ripe.
