Just like every male, they blow their load all over the place so that eventually babies are born. In the plant case, that would be seeds. The idea is you want to keep the female an old maid til death, which will give you the best buds.

If you're trying to get seeds out of it, you can keep the male. You can probably get a few good seeds as well as some mid-grade bud out of it at best. Isn't that all schwag is anyway?

so basically male shit isnt as potent as female

If you are using good genetics, seeded buds will not be that much lower in potency than sensimilla. Obviously, you will lose a bit in yield. But, if you have paid x amount of dollars for 10 seeds, why wouldn't you make some more?
Some people think that if you have a seed in the bud it automatically turns to crap. But that is not the case.

Male plants themselves do not produce the flowers that the females produce. These flowers contain the most THC and that is why they are desired over males. The male plant does contain some THC and can be dried and smoked, and some light smokers do this.

A half pound? A half ounce? What are you asking? A half pound is 8 ounces or 228 grams. A half ounce weighs 14 grams.

I might be wrong, I'm blitzed with the wrong type of weed to think right now :stoned:

ugh....please look around before asking these sort of obvious things in future...

1) most likely, your getting a half-ounce, which is 14grams
2) bud is fire? i assume you mean quality. high quality bud will have a nice coating of white trichromes ("frost") and a nice smell and look. also, it should be trimmed well, so that there are not ugly leaf tufts sticking off of it

3) male plants are 100% unsmokable. you will not get high off them. all they do is spray pollen onto the female plants and convert thier thc-containing buds into a giant mass of unsmokable seeds. (however, thisll give you seeds for the next generation of plants if you dislike cloning)

oh, you are... a half pound is 8oz, but 8 X 28g/oz = 224 grams.
