Ran,
I always heard that when that little drop of water appeared on the stigma, it
was too late to make a cross.
Joyce,
I have found that what little pollen there is gets rubbed off pretty quickly
by the bees. There are some varieties, too, that just don't produce much
pollen. By 9:00 A.M. it's possible there won't be much left. I usually
collect mine about 6:00 A.M. and let it dry until about 8:00.
