Male plants good for anything?

[trace854]

My garden is growing well and is now into the third week of flowering. I have about a 50/50 mix of male and female plants. I know about removing the males before pollenation for better female buds, but do I just throw the males out or do they have any smoke potential? Thanks.

Nope, I'd throw them out or use them for compost but they cannot be smoked

Thanks man. I've cut 'em down and tossed em. Now I just have to wait for the ladies to get their shit together and then....game on!

someone said you could make them for hash....

 

[VladHimself]

well thats what shwag is, isnt it. just a male plant?

 

[J842P]

No... normally, shwag has seeds... seeds=female...
I hear males can be usefull though... I mean shit, I wouldn't throw it away...

^ Not all females have seeds, only the ones exposed to males, or light in 12/12 darkness

I think hash is talking about hermi's. Exposing plants that are in 12/12 cycle to irregular light for prolonged periods can stress female plants and cause hermaphrodites , wich is a plant displaying both male and female sexes thus it self pollenates. Although not all plants that are exposed to irregular lighting will hermi there is a such thing as TRUE females. A hermi trait will only be expressed in a plant that posses the trait in the first place. Males can be used to make hash but if wont be that great,
