I'm thinking of doing the same. I think you just put a tiny bit of pollen on each bud. I'm guessing like two or three little specks deep into the bud and they should produce a few seeds in that spot.

yea its something to that nature but you need to do it 3-4 weeks in so that there is time for the seeds to grow and mature. its kust like growing pot need time to grow a mature. gl i did it by accident one of my ladies hermied and fucked my whole last garden and i have more seed then i could count. (none look to be any good)

give it a try and see what you can get from it but if you ladies are alre4ady flowering then just leave a male in there and let it happen naturaly.

i've left a male in the growroom before and got nothing but seeds from the plants that were flowering...

the better idea is to impregnate the lower branches. turn off all fans and use a cotton swab or paintbrush to gently brush the buds with pollen that you want seeds from. you can spray the buds afterwards or tie a plastic bud around the branch to limit the pollen from spreading.

if you do the lower branches you can always chop the tops off and let the seeds finish
 
Yeah, throw a garbage bag over the plant, use a cotton swab, and gently put the pollen on the white hairs that are popping out of the female. Also, the freezer isn't the best place for pollen, keeping it in the fridge is fine for years. Good luck!
