Greetings from Canada

For short term I keep it in a cool closet in my basement sealed in an air tight container that has a gasket. I keep a rechargeable dehumidifier in with it.

For long term I put it into plastic vials which I put into small ziplock baggies. Then into a glass jar and into the freezer.

I collect between 2 and 4 oz per run.

What is the oldest pollen that you have used successfully? Ive read about frozen pollen that was stored for a few years, and still viable when used. Although, the rate of pollination decreased.
Its hard to believe, but I've never tried storing pollen long term so I wouldn't know.

I have had some get good success off 2 year old pollen I sent them. Have not really gone much past that. My last bud run was all seeded due to collecting pollen at the same time but I will play with some of my older pollen during my next bud run to see what it will do. My current bud run is for smoke. I have heard others say they have used much older stuff but I have not personally. It will be interesting to try though. Got nothing to lose.
 
Skywalker OG lower branch I took for a tester is pretty good. Got a bit of resin to it, lol.
