Can male flowers pollinate buds that have been alr...

No, I wouldn't worry about he herbs drying being pollinated. There isn't enough time for seeds to form during cure as they truly tap out the plants energy.. I'd be more concerned with the pollen making its way into your flower room if it's close by.. unlikely but the risk is still there... I found a dried pollen sack in my herb that I used to pollinate another strain and the pollen was still viable after being in a food dehydrator for 36 hrs... Sterility will be key afterwards.. make sure to wash up after handling the dried nugs to avoid cross contamination... Cheers! Keep it Green! DWCHC 👈 👍
