Bag Seed, Males And Final Containers Questions

A few newbie questions I can't seem to find on here:

For those who have grown from mystery bag seeds, how was the quality of your harvested bud? (Assuming you did a sinsemilla grow) Better, worse, or same as the original weed?

What can you do with males after you cut them? I'm saving mine for cooking but wondering if there are better ideas out there.

And last, any suggestions for decent cheap final containers? I'm just growing plants in soil, nothing special. I can make my own drainage holes. I keep seeing people have buckets and whatnot but I have 6 possible plants and not a ton of cash.

Thanks!!

I have only grown from bagseed, the first time the buds were ok but I really didn't know what I was doing. All my other plants have turned out better than the original bud.

I will save my males for cooking as well if I ever get one buy I've really lucked out in that department so far. 4 grows, 8 plants, all females. Chopped males are worthless except for cooking and hash as far as I'm aware. Living males can be used for experimentation. Try some techniques like fimming, lst, topping etc, fertilizers, just about any thing you want to try, without the risk of ruining your ladies. You can also get into breeding if you choose and make your own seed supply.

I have my plants in empty 4 gallon kittly litter buckets, sterilized of course! I need a couple more, I plan on getting some cheapo plastic trash cans at the dollar store.

Thanks!
I did just think of mop buckets at the dollar store an hour ago, lol. Should have thought of that first since almost everything else is from there.
