thanks for sharing! i don't understand the purpose of mixing the flour with the pollen? is it just to dilute it?

My pleasure.

The flour serves 2 purposes that I'm aware of...

• It acts as a dessicant to keep the pollen dry
• It acts as a dilutant (Too much pollen makes too many seeds, the size drops dramatically)

wow thats interesting i haven't heard that before.. too many seeds will cause smaller seeds? i never knew too many seeds could be a bad thing i thought most people wanted to maximize pollination! thanks for sharing

Indeed, the plant can only put so many resources toward seed production. When too many seeds are started on the plant, the size of the seeds can be extremely small.

I shoot for pollinating when the plants are bursting with white pistils, and still have at least 5-6 weeks of flowering time left. :)
