    Wondering if anyone knows any decent ways to collect the pollen from a male plant . I was also wondering if anyone knows based on the pictures how long it should take for the pods to open up and start dropping?

    couple weeks more maybe.
    move the plant outside away from you grow.
    When the limbs get where you can bump em' and it's rains pollen cut off the limbs and put in a brown paper bad,
    You can put in the freezer after the limbs have dried.
    Take the paper bag, place over the limb you intent to seed, and shake it a small bit.
    Thats it

    Thanks man will do I have had it outside about a week now since I noticed the pods just brought it in for a few pictures. It was the most skunky smelling of the 3 plants I'm growing and turned out to be a male. Il use the paper bag thing you suggested il have to keep checking on them daily and see if its spilling out the last few days the flowering sites went purple and smells like some nice stuff hopefully they pop within the next 7 days would be the perfect time to pollinate the girls.

    Just put a little cup and a couple of High Times magazines (with good bud centerfolds) in the tent. Come back 15-20 minutes later and the cup should be filled with pollen.
