Sepal lifted (sarr polination help)

Okay I have looked over the pollination guide. My flava flower has the petals fully grown (I think). Is this the time to pollinate or do I have to wait until the sepals lift? So the flower looks more 'open'.
 
i wait untill all/most of the pollen has fallen into the umbrella thing, then i put it on the stigma.
 
I'd wait 5 or 6 days. Tap the top of the flower and pollen will fall into the umbrella, so you can get at it with a paintbrush.
 
Well a little is in the bottom of the flower. I have to wait a couple days anyway so the other plant's flower will open.
