Pollen Making & Pollen Flower Locations


What's your preferred pollen cycle? Since I have yet to fully expand my forest, I like to use the cheapest pollen making option to save on honeydew. It only takes 30 seconds to make 9 honeydew on a fully upgraded pollen flower, and they accumulate quickly over time. The rest of the pollen making options are simply overpriced!

However most of us don't have the luxury of time to sit in front of our devices and go on a clicking pollen spree. So apart from the least expensive method of pollen making, I sometimes like to go for the longest option too.


Costs only 100 Glowbucks during Half Price events

If you have a Bumble Bee, you can double the pollen made from a single shift!

A cool trick I learnt from my friends is that since the Bumble Bee has a 12 hour cooldown, you can set 2 pollen flowers on a 20 hour cycle and send the bee to one of them first.

When the flowers are done, free the bee by releasing the pollen and you will see that the bee's cooldown is completely recharged.

Now you can send him to the 2nd flower before popping it and tadaaa, you have doubled the pollen of both 20 hour shifts with 1 bee!


Pollen Capacity

Each pollen flower you unlock increases your holding capacity by 1000. There are a total of 6 pollen flowers in the game, which is a total of 6000 pollen you can hold in your rainforest.

Pollen is not held by individual flowers
Although the amount of pollen you can hold in your forest depends on how many flowers you have, it does not mean that each flower can only produce or hold 1000 pollen each.

For example, even when you have several pollen flowers in your forest, you can just use 1 pollen flower to produce pollen until you reach the total maximum amount of pollen you can hold. This is particularly useful if you want to keep your pollen to certain areas of your forests so they don't obstruct your view when hunting for bugs

It is possible to exceed your maximum pollen capacity
The game will only stop you from tapping on a particular pollen-making option if you do not have the space for it.

However, it is possible to burst your pollen capacity if you had already set your pollen flowers to work beforehand.

To check how much pollen you have in your forest, click on an open pollen flower to visit the 'Make Pollen' menu.



Unlocking Pollen Flowers

In the beginning you get 2 pollen flowers. After you have cleared 7 spots, you will see that the forest now has 4 different expansion paths. Due to increasing costs in forest expansions, it takes a while before you can unlock another pollen flower. The best way to find pollen flowers is to keep expanding in one direction until you get it.



In your forest, each expansion spot is labelled. If you see a butterfly symbol, it means that spot is a caterpillar nesting ground. If you see a flower symbol, you've found your next pollen generator!

It seems like Starlight's forest is shaped like an upside down moth! Pretty neat huh? xD


Happy Starry Fluttering~! ♥

  1. Thanks! This really helped me as I need lots of pollen for my moths and I wasn't sure if the locations were the same in Flutter Butterfly Sanctuary.
