:confused: Ok, I was reading a topic about someone asking is this a male or female, an someone replyed saying its a male, get rid of it. Wtf, see recently I just planted my first seeds. About 5 days ago, an since I became a member of this forum, I didnt even know there were a female or male. :confused: An why did he say get rid of it? What when u dry the leaves out can you still smoke it? If u do what will happen if u smoke a male?
Male plants are useless for smoking they produce little to no THC. Females are what you want they produce the buds and THC. Males are only good if you want to pollinate a female and have some seeds for your next crop. But if you just want dank buds, seed free then you want to kill any males you have.
How do u pollinate a female? An what does it mean?
do some reading and come back
A pollinated female will produce seeds. A un-pollinated female i.e. sensimellia(sp?) will have no seeds and the areas where seeds would have been produced if pollinated will swell with resin. To pollinate a female a male must release its pollen, it will do this naturaly or you can very carefuly remove the male from your growing area and harvest its pollen in a platic bag. Then with your bag of pollen you can take a paint brush, dip it in the pollen, and apply it to the female pistils. This will produce a seeded bud. Sounds like you should do some research. This is basic stuff you should know BEFORE you start any grow. But we all have to start somewhere.
