Not quite sure if this belongs in the "Advanced Tekniques" subsection...

When is the ideal time to harvest male plants to use for hash?

take a magnifying glass and looks on th leaves and under them as you would a bud, will be harder to find though unless you got a super frosty like ww

like when as in to relation of the size/maturity of the pollen sacks?

I dont have a microscope or even a strong magnifying glass. I have a magnifying glass thats probably as good at +3.0 reading glasses.

is there an ideal time to harvest a male for whatever peak THC concentrations there may be?

Kill your males as soon as they show sex. The amount of extractable resin in a male isn't worth the hassle, and surface structures on a male are rare, making Iso-hash the only real option... but chlorophyll is co-extracted... you'll end up with VERY green, very weak hash, at best.

So compost or save until I have surplus greens for ISO hash...
