Male Plants, are they worth anything?

[g.man.mn]

I started a couple plants over the winter just for something to do... I think I have 2 males (pic). Will they flower and get buds or are they worthless?

 

[WeedHopper]

Yep!!!!Worthless!!!!

 

[Rosebud]

The only thing they are good for is pollen. Good practice grow though.

 

[Hushpuppy]

They are already flowering Those are some seriously small buds though I hope you don't have them anywhere near your flowering females. Unless you want more seeds. Males are only good for making new seeds and screwing up some good sensamilla.

Yep worthless or Yep will flower and bud?

 

[brimck325]

you might want to read up on it, try greg green's cannabis grow bible. easy read and in layman's terms, imo. males dont bud unless they're herms, and you def. don,t want that. peace

By the way,,looks like ya got alotta stretch going on,,and please tell me ya aint using Airconditioning Duct for light reflection.

 

[Hushpuppy]

Good eye WeedHopper That is metal duct pulled open

Dude, you are better off to remove that from any plants and use the white walls. You will get better light reflection from white walls or mylar or Panda film.

what's the strain---males are needed to grow seed---IMO you might cut it back---remove all the pollen sacks and put it back into veg til you get some good females to cross with---after my males have preformed their duty to preserve the strain---the compost pile they go

THG, Andy52,,and several others input got me on the right track. Like I said,,Read Read Read.:icon_smile:
