in countries where hash is prevalent. keif, true keif that is, is made from males and unfortunately has more pollen than trichs usually.
in my growers guide mel or ed talk about using salt water cures on males because the salt causes the tissues to shrink more than other types of curing.
that concentrates the trichs and makes the smoke a little better. ive tried some males here and there. for the most part they suck but once in a while you can get lucky.
Thank you so much for the information! I'm not in desperate need to smoke or anything; and hopefully wont be. I just didn't know if they produced any bud at all.
xZenChildx Reviewed by xZenChildx on . Is my plant a male? I am brand new to growing. I have a few seeds that have just sprouted, but my uncle gave me a plant that he's had for a little while and I am about 99% positive it's a male. I would just like some educated information on my plant in specific. I have read how to tell the difference, but I would like some re-assurance. 290616290617290618290619290620 Rating: 5
