Another update with pictures of the 2 males i isolated
Here are to females i pulled out to take some updated pictures on, both are showing sings of bud sites with white hairs starting
here are the 2 males...
i have be debating about keeping both for pollen but from the pics does anyone see one they would kill off? i would like to use the pot to start an MI5 in, Or should i just keep both?
Last 2 on the Right are the same male plant
Also just to add... I have not used ANY nutes so far

Joinin the party a little late, but taking up a seat for this one! 
Plants are lookin awesome man! :clap: Tough to tell about the males without being able to smell them. I guess it depends on what your goals are for your breeding project. The second one looks like it's a little bigger with more bud sites and it flowered earlier than the other one... might be a good start to breed towards a heavy yielding, early flowering line.

Hey guys... here is a pic of my tallest female, has some good bud sites and looking healthy. My male that i have isolate is starting to drop pollen, I am going to collect some of it and wanting to brush a bit onto one of the bud sites to get more beans.. Is she ready to accept it?
As you can see below this is a lower branch with pistols here is where i am wanting to apply the pollen with a brush... if i can go ahead and do it.. how long will it take for the pistols to accept the pollen? i would hate to pollenate it then put it back into my grow tent to soon then blow the pollen to my other females

yes she will take pollen now... probably be less beans as there are few pistils yet... but you may not want 100's...
best bet is to spray the plant with a fine gentle mist after pollying... this will do 2 things... set the pollen and after drying, be more ikely to prevent unwanted pollinatin when placed back in Gen population.
dep on temps and transpiration... pistils usually wizen in 2-3 days.... sometimes as long as 4 or 5...

i dunno if you picked a male yet, but if i had to pick one, it would be the one on the right, less leaves through the 'bud' sites will make for an easier to trim bud,
unless of course you want the bushiness of the other male,
why not use pollen from both males but mark the branches you apply pollen from each to,
so put a marker of orange tape on ones pollinated with the plant on the left and a blue tape on the ones for the other plant
that way you'll be able to see if there is any phenotypic difference between the two males and choose based on the offspring which to continue with
