What to do w/the males?
seriously, there are at least 2 other threads on this that have been posted in within the last 3 days. why you make this thread i dont know.
males are only useful for pollen and hemp, besides that, all you can do is hit peole with it for the fun of i and sell its leaves to some schoolkids (beats organo, rigt?)

What to do w/the males?
I answered a question similar to this a while back.
My opinion still stands that, when stripped of their leaves, they make excellent back-scratchers.
Cats tend to go nuts over all plants, especially cannabis plants, so if you have any cats...let them tear it apart. It isn't going to hurt them.
Other than that, there's really no use for them other than making compost. Some people claim that you can make hash oil out of them, but they ignore the fact that there is virtually no THC present. Without THC, you're not really making hash, just an oily substance that has little use recreationally.

Clandestine, I must disagree with you. Male plant, although less potent than females, CAN get you buzzed. The male plant is good to "cut" your bud with- it even adds a bit of THC. All my males are either smoked or go into the jar of vodka for Green Dragon.
No, males won't get you wasted, but if you are out, they are way better than nothing! I simply cannot understand why folks cut their bud with tobacco :wtf: when male is available! Tobacco is carcinogenic! And it tastes bad, IMHO. I will "cut" my bud joints with male or even fan leaves, or roll just half a joint. I will NEVER use tobacco! - Granny:hippy:

What to do w/the males?
I stand corrected Granny, you're right that there is some THC in the males...but I generally don't bother with them. I've only ever used them for breeding, otherwise they're ripped out of the dirt before they have the chance to violate my precious ladies!
I've heard of people taking pounds of dry male plants and pressing it into some fairly potent oil, but again, I've just never taken the time to find out how accurate this process is, and from what I remember reading, you need to have a whole bunch of it. As for adding male plants to a stash of sinsemilla, I've always found smoking dried leaves (male & female) to be harsh...regardless of how well it was cured. At least with female trimmings, there's always the option of Bubble Hash...but I'd guess that's not possible with males that lack trichomes.
And cannabis is also carcinogenic when burned, but I agree that tobacco is much worse. It's highly addictive, and presents no medicinal qualities to those who smoke it. I should know, I've been trying for years to quit. About to start taking Paxil tomorrow, I've heard promising stories of people who've quit while taking that. Plus, it's supposed to make me peppy to boot! :thumbsup:
