I may be misunderstanding, so ignore me if this is not what you are asking!

Your Gemstone Island is just like any other habitat, in that it has a maximum capacity. So if you let it "sit" until it has 3 gems in one habitat, it will stop accumulating until you collect it. You will get 3 gems when you collect it. If you have 12 dragons on the island, each habitat will hold up to 3 gems, so you could potentially collect 12 gems at one time.
