I've got this male WW that I've had out to pasture--no, really, it's out in the pasture. I brought him inside my work shop last night to get him outta the wind. The pods are swelling and are becoming staminate and yellowing. I assume this means its time is near.

Should I:
Keep him under the flouro with a slick surface under him to gather falling pollen?

Clip off the pollen heavy limbs as they ripen, and bag them like the sticky here shows?

Try some new and exciting method I'm not familiar with?

Input welcomed, but keep in mind this is just practice and not genetics I'd care about saving for the end of the world as we know it or anything.
 
It depends on what else is near by. If nothing else can be affected by the pollen, just put something below it. If you have female plants in flowering that you dont want to breed, put it in the bag. Pollen can and will get everywhere.
 
Thanks, Umbra. I don't have anything in flower right now--actually waiting on this thing to drop pollen so I wouldn't dirty up my ladies in waiting. After I gather pollen, I'll spritz all of us down and go to 12/12.

I'm far too impulsive to have something that dangerous around--I'd space it off, wander mindlessly from the male to the girls and end up the seed king. I haven't improved with maturity, just adjusted well enough to know I can't trust me.
