Boys beat the blank. Pretty weak & taste like crap. If I smoke too much male I usually get a headache. They make very low grade hash so I never felt it was worth the time & effort. Then again, I silk screened, & there are better ways to do it. Maybe tlranger or shovle can coach you through some better methods. But if it were me, I'd maybe only keep some to tide me over till my buds were ready or I cold get some.
Know about the battery thing. B.S. degree in photo + 20yrs pro. Ruined a wedding I shot once over battery (re-chargeable didn't hold charge), nearly got sued! Horticulture was always my main thing though. Best thing about photog was I could work florist/greenhouses full time & photog on the side. Kept me from getting bored.
Everything will fall into place for you &by the end of next season you'll be asking yourself what took you so long. I can't wait for you to harvest & enjoy your first grow. Its really a big thrill!
Girls rule! PEACE.
