Once the males have released their pollen, their primary function is now complete.
The plants can be picked at anytime now.
They have served their purpose and will not chemically develope any stonger.
Thats why the male plants die before the females.
Just like in fucking people
Thanks much, Harddon! Exactly what I needed to know. BTW, according to growing-marijuana.org, the relative potency in decending order is:


"Female flowering clusters. In practice you don't separate hundreds of tiny bracts to make a joint. The whole flowering mass (seeds removed), along with small accompanying leaves, forms the material.
Male flower clusters. These vary more in relative potency depending on the strain (see "Potency by Sex," below).
Growing shoots. Before the plants flower, the vegetative shoots (tips) of the main stem and branches are the most potent plant parts.
Leaves (a) that accompany flowers (small); (b) along branches (medium);(c) along main stem (large).
Generally, the smaller the leaf is, the more potent it can be.
Petioles (leaf stalks). Same order as leaves.
Stems. Same order as leaves. The smaller the stem (twig), the higher the possible concentration of cannabinoids. Stems over 1/16" in diameter contain only traces of cannabinoids and are not worth smoking. The small stems that bear the flowers can be quite potent.
Seeds and Roots. Contain only traces (less then .01 percent) and are not worth smoking or extracting."

My next crop's filthiest bitch will be named Harddona.

Oh, and here's my first closet grown main kola at 25 days (hey, it's my cherry, so I'm proud just to get her this far):
9ski9 Reviewed by 9ski9 on . male for lean times I separated my males from an indoor grow and stuck them in an old greenhouse that actually gets marginal light. I kept them watered, but pretty much forgot about them through what is now the 25th day of 12/12. It's my first indoor grow and have totally concentrated on the females (and psyched that I just bought a 60-100x microscope). Today, the boys all jizzed over themselves and I figured I should ask the best way to harvest these bag seed males. I'm not looking to do the hash thing, just a Rating: 5
