Ihave many pollinating questions , 1- is it true that you only have around 6 hours to pollinate a female? 2-if I have no males at the time the females open what do i do with those females ,just leave them or cut them off 3- is it true you can freeze male flowers if so how exactly do I do that? PLEASE HELP A ROOKIE

Six hours sounds about right. The sooner the better. Leave the females alone just in case bees bring in pollen from another garden. I have heard of people trying to freeze pollen but I have not heard that it actually works.
