Just need that bad news confirmation

[Ronevan]

hey evryone this is my first time growing and well i think ive just hit my first real snag.
Any question that i have ever had ive found the answer in one of the million's of helpful threads,
thanks. But now ive come to the conclusion that both of my beautiful lady's are indeed NOT BEAUTIFUL LADIES,
They are indeed some very masculin men lol. Anyways i was just wondering if some one could
just confirm my suspicions thanks a bunch. like i said this was my first grow and i would just like some re assurance before i rip theses out of the ground and throw them into a garbage bag lol thanks again,

here are thier pics....

I heard the male: female ratio is 3:1. True?

no, a lot of factors are involved. In Nature versus Nurture, nurture can have a big impact on sex. In order to survive it makes sense to have more females around, you only need one male but sometimes the environment turns out more males.

What do you do with the male leaf? I have smoked it. If its really good it won't give me a headache.

Any suggestions on what to do with the male leaf and stems that I usually toss?

I remember doing a crop and it was like 10 males out of 15 plants. That was sucky sucky. But I've been on the other end too and had 100% females. It's all the luck of the draw. How would you calculate a 7 to 1 ratio? Every seed is different.

If I ever get the room for a veg area it will be clones, clones, clones! Attack of the clones! Then no more surprise penises popping up in my crops.
