anyone have any experience freezing pollen? i put a male in the freezer today because i'mnot sure if i'll have any tomorrow to pollinate with . but i'm wondering, do i take it out an hour or more before i'm ready to pollinate? or do i just go from the freezer to the female?

Hi Scott, I h have taken them straight from the freezer to the female. I have pollinated 3 females this way, and so far have had good luck. I hope this helps a little.

Scott- don't worry about unfrezing the blossum. The flower is frozen but the pollin inside isn't.
