How to get pollen from male plants

Maxyeild, you definately don't want the males in the room once they show flowers. The flowers mature at different rates and you could have an accident.
Maybe I'm just a bit lazy but I just pull the males out of the cabinet and go set them in the woods, repot the females and just water the males once in a while. When they start dropping pollen I gently bend the stem over my extended palm and shake the piss out of it. Then I go turn off the fans, and rub a frosty bud or two in my palm. I wash my hands and wait for the seeds. At first I worried that just getting pollen in the flowering chamber would get all over but I think the pollen is stuck to the resin and doesn't escape. I've been making seeds like this for the last couple years and it's been very contained.
