male plants

lip, i'm sitting here thinking and i just want to say that i don't mean to seem rude or disrespect you. it just initially seemed to me that you took what i posted out of context just to make me sound wrong or ignorant. after more consideration i don't think that was the case. when i say males flower like females all i mean is that once you switch from 24/0 or 18/6 to 12/12 they will switch from vegitative growth to flowering. to me that is the same, the product of that flowering is what is different. we seem to be saying the same thing. no hard feelings.......i hope.

look at this photo, and tell me again, how male plants have no THC ... I am so sick of all the bad inforrmation going around ,,, Hi, Stormie ! ... :smokin:

ummmm, but thats a female you're showing a picture of there Frank. :confused:

freewheelinfrank, after seeing the seeded female plant i still say that male plants have low thc and are not worth growing except for making seeds.

Some people have a very low tolerance and dont need much leaf to get stoned. Especially with todays super-strains.

Male leaf, female leaf, no matter to some people. What I would do is cure the leaf. Then I'd smoke it :pimp:

Ok, the term "goes to flower" could be said of males or females. Yes they both mature and work on reproduction. Females have pistils, and males have pollen sacks. One could define that as "flowering" and be correct, but in general people tend to call male reproductive growth as "balls" and female as "flowers".

To me, that looks like a seeded female, therefore it's not a male.

Males have no real reason to pack on trichomes. If they did the pollen would never be able to fly away to the females pistilles. It'd just get stuck on the trichomes.

So, males have such a low amount of THC it's easier to throw them away.

haaahahhhahahahahaaa....

To echo LIPs explanation, the males aren't "useless" if you want seeds and don't want to have to wait around for the banks to hopefully come through.

Then there's the hermie scenario. I regret throwing out two that I knew were hermies because I could see a few random pistils toward the top and mostly balls everywhere else. I'm mad because they were Northern Lights seeds, and now I'm down to my last two seeds.
