I'd love to see more about the collection process.
Oh so you can use a little stiff sniffer bottle to spray the pollen across the plant as long as you're pollen's dry and then to collect the pollen get a dog collar and strap it on there nice and tight and then get a heat gun and heat it up about 2 in up so slumps down a little bit causing a little lip that way the pollen will go into that outer ring edge and you have a way to be able to scrape it out without it trying to go down the base shaft of the flower
Why did they hurt that beautiful corpse flower 😭

They didn't kill it. In order to pollinate the flowers we have to remove the spathe (big purple petal) because we physically cannot reach them without removing it.
