Hey Uruguay

Great to hear its going so good. I'll try to answer some of your questions:

1. It's not worth the time to dry and smoke the males. I know that you sometimes hear people saying that they are worth smoking, but believe me it is not true. Anyone who says that is just plain wrong.
2. Im not sure about freezing the weed.
3. Flowering may take anywhere from about 7.5 - 9 weeks for some straight Indica's, up to over 12 weeks for some Sativa's and anywhere in between for crosses. Yes, the odor will often continue to increase as flowering continues. Some strains have a much stronger odor than others.
4. It's not unusual for some strains to begin flowering in mid summer.
5. If you mean that you smoked the leaves and got a buz then yes that is a very good sign.
6 â?? I have no 1st hand experience with any of Nirvana's beans. Perhaps someone else can answer.
7. Chop out the males right away just as soon as you can tell that they are males. Do it quick. Do not even wait another day.
8. I would have always made the cuttings in veg state before they began to show flower. I am not sure if it will work good now. Maybe somebody else can comment on that.

Welcome to the forum and the very best of luck to you.
