First Breeding Harvest

[Meta]

hello,
Just started my first seed harvest and Im week 3 in. the male has just started spewing pollen and stuff. I have the fan on and the grow area is covered with pollen. Ive

questions:
when can I get rid of the male?

I would remove him in about 2 weeks, let the ladies do their thing for 6 weeks and then check a seed, if its ripe,,,,,, else let it go 2 more weeks. Some strains may ripen in 2 weeks, another may take 8.

agree, just remove the male 40 days before you harvest to get fully viable mature dark seeds
