View Full Version : Save the male plants!

Don't kill male plants - put them outside somewhere. Then you'll be contributing to a natural population of cannabis. Sow your male and female seeds everywhere. There's not much pot growing naturally in the US because there's mostly female plants and people are getting rid of the males.
This is the idea - how can the government possibly control a plant if it's growing all over the place? I'll save a couple of females to grow inside, but then I'll take all my other seeds and plant them or throw them in the woods. Then I forget about them so they can grow wild and multiply. The seeds will not only grow in that area but will be spread out by animals that eat the plants. Cannabis being a resilient plant would probably take over some areas. You would not have to wait months for a plant to grow - you could just go for a walk and pick some fresh buds whenever you want.

I'm not really sure how many seeds there are or how long it takes them to fully develop - someone here might know.
I usually just toss all my seeds outside - I don't always keep track of them or go back to check them. Just look for places where cannabis might grow well and see what happens. If everyone started doing this, the shit would be growing everywhere!

midnight- i agree with you, there should be more cannabis plants just growing naturally in the wild.....anytime i have seeds im always trying to find people to grow it so it will spread like wildfire....the only bad part about this idea is contaminating the outdoor guirilla grows with the pollen. And i recently had my female plant pollinated, i have about 150-200 seeds from one plant.

I'm in, where I live there are about 200 miles of bike trails and a college campus...lot's of green spaced that is left alone....I have about 50 beans that would do good outdoors......let the planting commence, in spring of course.
Come on everyone let's start a campaign to seed the world!

Come on everyone let's start a campaign to seed the world!There's a set of walking trails just a 5-minute walk from my house which total about 10 miles and they're all deep in the woods. So I won't look suspicious walking through the woods with a backpack.
I should have posted this earlier during the spring, but any time is a good time to start saving seeds. Some of your seeds might not last a year in storage, but the more the better.

Yeah- or REALLY pissing off a nearby grower who can't figure out why his backyard grow is all full of beans.

so the males just make seeds by them selfs???????????
i thought the female did or sumthin?
stinkyattic
07-18-2006, 06:13 PM
Um, no....They produce tiny tiny grains of pollen that are carried by insects or even the wind and pollenate any females nearby, producing seeds.
So if you have a male in your yard, and your neighbor is trying to grow seedless bud, your neighbor is SOL.

so wait can u get seeds from just a male plant

No. Like you can't make a baby with just sperm.

Wow... the same question asked three times, and answered three times.
TAKES MALE AND FEMALE TO MAKE BABY. MALE POLLINATES FEMALE, JUST LIKE HUMANS.
sorry, I figured that would answer the next ten questions.

I'm talking about both males and females - in the woods, not in my yard. Growing wild everywhere, the way it should be.

so, if i have 1 male in woods. do u really think somebodys growing close enough to me to polinate??

OK heres the problem with your idea.
Don't you think these plants used to grow everywhere.
They did.
And the gov already got rid of them once.
And that was back in the day.
Before all the good weed killer we got now.
Pull the roots and the plant is dead.
Last year they pulled half a million plants out in the hills around my town.
So people are alrady trying this.
Just to grow.
And it doesn't keep the plants around.
Plus plant a male outside and pollinate your nieghboors sensi plants.
If you pollinated my plant with your male.(say I was your nieghboor)
I would be so pissed at you.
I'd probably never talk to you again.
So, ok idea.
But unrealistic.
Sorry.

Your male is not going to only pollinate the females right near it. It's going to nail everything within flying distance of any bugs around and whatever the wind takes.

Him growing his way does not interferse with you growing your way.
However, you growing your way interferes with everyone else growing our way; that is, sinsemilla.
So I BEG BEG BEG you please don't.

I would not purposely pollinate anyone's female - and I have a very isolated spot for my plants.
Jdog7000
07-21-2006, 03:01 PM
The polline travels miles.
Read and then come back and talk about it.
You don't know what your talkin about.
I I lived near you and my plants got pollinated.
I would blame you.
sheist
07-21-2006, 03:06 PM
when is the pollen extracted? i mean, dispursed, cus i have a few suspectable males.. and i dont want them blowin up before i can shred them..
wat if i cut off the pods?? would that remove the danger so i can continue growing?? it'd be nice decor!
stinkyattic
07-21-2006, 03:32 PM
The pollen is released when the pods flop over and open. They look like tiny yellow-green flowers.
Cutting them off would prevent them releasing pollen but it's hard to get them all and really not worth the risk.
You can also spray them with water, neem, or wilt-pruf to make the pollen non-viable BUT THIS IS NOT 100% GUARANTEED TO WORK.
So please everyone just kill your males and save the other growers in your town a big headache. Please?

i've thought about this, but whatever you do don't plant them right next to your house. you don't want a cannabis forest nextdoor tipping off the police to funny business :)

i just wanted to throw this in. ln millwauke county wisconsin there is a huge problem with wild weed growing everywhere. Each year the cops rip up and burn tons of the stuff and burn it. This has been going on for years and they stil cant get it all. thanks to people encouraged to call it in. i would love the idea of a forest of bud every where but until someone develops a plant that only develops maybe 100 seeds per pound of bud so it can still reproduce then i say plant them somwhere far away so there is no chance to pollonate your good sedless plants

I agree. Stinky is just pointing out that "your way" of growing is quite selfish. you want seeded bud, we don't. By growing our way, we cause no harm or differences in your plants. By you growing your way does in fact interfere with our sinsemilla. That is NO BEANS IN OUR BUD!
I bet if our growing our way, in some way had the ability of mutating and killing your plants as well, you probably wouldn't tell us "It's totally cool man, I don't mind you ruining my crop that I poured my heart into. You grow your way man, and I'll grow mine"
Just think about it for a minute.
good luck

although it does seem selfish, there has to be ways to prevent your flowers from being pollenated like indoor growing and such. If not, then i apoligize to all san diegoins... san diogins... san diegans? anyways, for the seeds i spreaded.

Oh I just totally cracked up. San Diegans? I like that one best. It sounds about right.
The way to prevent seeds indoors is the same, just kill males.

08-07-2007, 07:17 PM
ya i couldn't quite figure it out but i agree san diegans sounds best. I gave both my 3 foot males to my bro. They just started, but he's a novice so he didn't know. I gave them to him for his birthday :D

since i'm a indoor grower and tossing a few seeds here and there is a great idea...helping the earth out to become what she use to be till the government started fucking things up...i say lets rebel against our government cuz the Revolution is coming and there is no way they can stop all of us. Just think about it if everyone did do this then there will be no way for the government to stop this act cuz there is millions of us and only a few of them. Now people are scared cuz they are our government and power....fuck that... we are the ones that put our money into the government and what do we get back...not a damnn thing.... so great fucking idea to fuck our government....

kill your males unless you want to breed.
but from what i hear thats pretty hard.

Cannabis is native to India, and is an introduced species in North America. It was originally grown here to make hemp ropes, and some of the seed escaped. Cannabis does still grow wild in India though, and there are no attempts to eradicate it there.
Most cannabis seeds you'd get have been bred for large potent buds, and would not do so well in the wild. If you want to get cannabis seeds that would do well in the wild, see if you can get ahold of that wisconsin ditch weed seed. :)

if marijuana started to grow wild in eh woods at the irst sign of a small crop seen by helicopters and stuff the plnts would be cut down by local police or if big enough dea no matter how hard u try to spread wild marijuana it probally just wnt wrk i bet u wouldnt be the first to try and certainly not the last

08-08-2007, 02:46 PM
i mean you idea sounds good on paper
but by tossing seeds all over a specific area you're asking for attention to be drawn to that area. that attention could be that of law enforcement which could lead them to trying to track you down or someone else guerilla growing in that area who is trying to do it discreetly

Stinkyattic, out of all the people on this board you've got to be my favorite, ive been following your grows since day 1 but i think your wrong on this one. Itd be more selfish of the outdoor growers to not want to sacrifice a cpl sensi grows for an idea that could change the governments minds on prohibiton. If every person on these boards, and all their friends spread seeds everywhere they could this idea just might work, but i for one will not drop a single seed until a unanamous decision is reached, i wouldnt mind rebelling against the government but i would rebel against a fellow grower. Later. :hippy:

heres an idea.why dont you just take the male pollen and put it in a tube then sprinkle it on one of your females to get a bunch of seeds,plant them wherever then check on them in a couple months kill the males and repeat the process so theres only seeds in 1 plant and the rest are good:thumbsup:

All that tossing seed around is gonna do is bring back paraquat- (just google it.)

The big guy is 100% correct. Your very best bet is activism.
Any grower who would like to make seeds and preserve the sacred herb, it is very simple to do so! There's a quick instruction on page 22 of D.Rock's grow. Please, if you want to make seeds, do it within the privacy of your own home! :D
