male or female?

Well, when those little pods open, they will pollenate the female part of the plant. Once that occurs, the plant will concentrate on ripening the seeds and have much less attention for producing trichomes.

So, you can work your butt off and pick off all the male pods, or trash it, not much good for more than cannabutter

there aren't that many male pods (the little balls) on the plant, so I wouldn't mind picking it off but would that cause my plant to stress or even die?
