A paper bag, like from a bottle shop, wrapped around an actively shedding male flower cola will collect pollen quite nicely and won't become overly humid and damaging to said pollen if only on the plant for a couple of days.

 

Then you can put the bag over the cola to be pollinated on the female and tie it up under still conditions and you can avoid pollinating large amounts of an otherwise sensimilla crop.

when i last collected pollen i just cut the male down just as it was starting to shed its pollen and hung it upside down over a bit of plastic. about a week later it was fairly well covered in pollen and i just had to scrape it up

[loylty gets u nothing]

i have used plain paper to sit under the balls

gentle shake it falls

then i put in a lill vile and shes into the fridge

sealed and then placed in a old black film cannister

let us know how ya go bro
