Now that I have a male, how can I make the best of it?

I only grow one at a time so there's no risk of pollinating an unlucky female. Is there anything I can do with a baby boy now that I have one?

Does it smoke well at all? Hash? Do I need to find the guy in the park to keep me going until I'm back on course. This is my first male.

you can try to make oil - how much oil will vary by strain - but anything you get is better than zip

Your going to go through a lot of trouble to get very little out of that male. The best bet is to chop it up and throw it away and hope you get a female next time. Keep visiting your park source.

Males dont produce seeds only pollen. Also growing one at a time doesnt really make sense unless its feminized and even then it may go herm.

Marijuana is a fairly nutritious plant. You can eat it or throw it away(they also make good compost). Immature males aren't worth doing much else with.

i would keep it and collect the pollen then pollenate just one bud off of your next female plant so you can have a load of seeds for your next grow

I always wondered how my outdoor crops were pollinated so much.
