Bozo, could you explain how this box is used exactly?
Thanks!
Hey
yeah man, it's pretty simple really once you put the box together and the most complicated part of that is wiring the pc fan, which btw is about as complicated as tieing your shoes.
...what isn't clear in the pics is the need for an intake of sorts, it shows the fan/'scrubber' combo but you'd also want to put an intake hole somewhere on the box as well and i'd suggest filtering it too although pollen shouldn't escape through the intake if the exhaust pc fan is of decent quality.
...the 'scrubber' is made from pieces cut from a hepa filter or a furnace filter, something like that and these are available at Lowes and the like for small money, you just need something to filter out loose pollen so none escapes into your budding chamber.
...anyway, once you put the box together you just put the male inside and then you can put the box inside your flower room so he can flower afterwhich you just collect the pollen and use it as needed. (you'd want to take the entire isolation chamber out of your budding chamber whenever you needed to open it to water the male, ...then, once you're ready to put it back take a spray bottle of water and lightly spray yourself and the outside of the box before returning it to your budding chamber, just to be sure there are no free floating grains of pollen, better to be safe rather than sorry)
if you search around there are many good threads on pollen collection and storage so i'd suggest you go ahuntin', lol. ...i'd share links but the threads i know are all on a different forum so you'll have to do your own research and i'd bet when you do you'll find that same info here.
...properly collected and stored pollen can remain viable for years.
peace, bozo
...there should be an assload of information on how to wire up a pc fan as well but if you can't find it give me a shout out and i'll share what i know.
