collecting,drying and storing pollen.

[biglongdarren]

I have been asked now by a lot of people about selling them pollen, is there many on here that do this, i might buy a dryer for the job next year, once dried does it keep for long?

Thanks Darren

I keep it in small kilner jars in the freezer once dry, it appears the same indefinitely, but I did read it loses approximately half its nutritional value if kept for a year (I can't remember where exactly I read this, but it was to do with using it in pollen supplements for the bees).

Tried collecting some as a feed supplement early next season. That and maybe have a look under the microscope. So far in a plastic tub in the freezer. The
