I've read male plant are the most potent when they begin to flower. Smoke it now! LOL!!! I also read here on this web site that some males can actually be more potent than females during flowering (probabley low grade) but I had a male plant one time that grew and was so damn easy to clone, It kept ALL my friends high all summer. So ya never know, but that boy of urs looks like he needs some serious light. Good luck and keep learning and trying.
