Shadecloth greenhouse or plastic to prevent pollination

Since cannabis cultivation has been legalized for home use in South Africa the rate of pollination has increased drastically. I would like to know if a greenhouse would prevent pollination and if so would a shadecloth greenhouse work (our climate is quite warm all year round)?

Pollen is extremely small (10–70 µm) so you will need to blow very filtrated air into the tent. Essentially create a clean room for your plants.

this only works if you have a supply air fan with a filter, which then pushes filtered air into the greenhouse. Otherwise your plants will die of heat death.
