If you are growing a strain you need, like and want--not such a bad problem to have! Oh, like the dog and hope that chair isn't for you! pr

does any useable product come off a male plant or is it all seeds?

No seeds off of a male plant my friend... just usable pollen.

As painretreat said, if you have just the one male plant you can collect the pollen from it and use it on certain areas of future females so you can get some seeds from it. But be sure that the plant is strong and healthy before collecting the pollen. No point in collecting weak genetics. I did it myself during the summer. I collected to pollen in a small fish food container and can apply the pollen with a cue tip to the lower buds of my indoor crop. I might try a little just to get some nice seeds. Anyway, sorry to hear you wont have anything smokable. Better luck next time. Collect the pollen and if you find a female sometime you can start making your own seeds. You seem to have trouble finding seeds if you only use the ones you are lucky to find in a bag. Its always worth buying the best seeds from the professionals and cloning from that. Keep 3 mother plants of the best seeds you get.

take care

get him away from the other plants if you have any. somebody told me one time to keep pulling the little ball off and sometimes it will change to fem but that might just be an urban legend. I tried it once for the hell of it but no luck. sux, i hate what that happens. are you using distilled water. I've heard tap water will make a plant go male.
