I know pollen can be stored in the freezer...but for how long can it be stored for ????

 

Any help would be much appreciated....

i've not heard of pollen being kept for years...this isn't to say it isn't possible i guess...

pollen will keep for months at a time as long as humidity is kept to a minimum....humidity will naturally make your pollen go mouldy...maybe adding a dessicant pouch will also prolong it's life...i saw a post at overgrow where a guy kept pollen in plastic drinking straws, sealed by melting at one end and i think he stuffed the other end with cotton wool...
