Pollinating AG's

I'm having probems with my AG plant. I'm getting female flowers opening but the male flowers are not opening at the same time. I think I may have used too much Nitrogen which I've stopped, and substituted with 0-20-0 foliar spray. My question however is this: Can I freeze male flowers and use them to pollinate the females if this problem happens again?

| You would need to freeze them with Liquid Nitrogen for the pollen to remain viable. Males usually come in bloom 10 days prior to the females blooming. |
