After pollinating the female how long does it need to be covered?

Sam...I keep mine covered for 3 days afterwards, doesn't hurt and I wanna make sure nothing else gets in.
That 307 is looking good! Mine too, strong plant.

we never cover our fruit after pollinating ( unless its raining )
once you have pollinated by hand and that pollen gets onto the female the partys over
it does not matter once the grains get applied
kinda like human reproduction ---- once the deed is done thers no turning back

Human Reproduction = 1 egg many sperm
Plant reproduction = Pollen from a male and many ovules which after fertilization form seeds.

The Statement made by PAP is not true.
