Mixing pollen from two males before applying it is tempting when you cannot decide between them, but it destroys the information in the seeds. Every offspring has an unknown father, so you cannot trace a good trait back to a particular male, and the batch is worthless for any further selection work even though the plants themselves may be fine. Why breeders keep pollen sources separate, and the narrow cases where a blend makes sense, are explained on https://breederregularseeds.com. Label each vial by male and dust separate branches instead.
