Got a male... can I use it for anything?

I have a plant that is 6 weeks old, 1 week into flower, and I've confidently identified it as a male. I separated it from my other plants, but I can't bring myself to just throw it away. Can I use it for any purpose whatsoever? I've heard you can use it for butter, but have no idea how...

Well, I've never used a male for canna butter...uhm, cuz I've never had 1 :clap:...but, I do know if it's a "good" plant you can use the pollen to make a cross of whatever it is and something else...
 
Lucky! This is my first grow and I didn't use fem seeds- after wasting as much time and resources on the males as I did, I won't make that mistake again.

The genetics of these guys leaves much to be desired, so I won't be cross-pollinating them. Oh well...

Ever since i found this out i never throw out any leafs let alone an entire plant be it male female or a hermy.

I cut it up, boil it in water for about 5-10 minutes maybe twice ( to get rid of the utterly disgusting spinach smell/taste), then heat it up in creamy/fat milk for about 2 maybe 3 hours, pour it thru a cloth to get rid of all the nasty plant material, and voila you got yourself some cannamilk.

I read that the leaves contain a lot of CBD and a lot of other cannabinoids, i read a couple people claiming to have rheumatoid arthritis saying this worked miracles, also someone said he gave it to his dog (not the milk but the leafs only) who had a really bad hip and it took away the pain and the dog wanted to play again.

I also found out that i really hate fat milk, it disgusts me and i only drink this cannamilk with my nose closed and wash it away with some orangejuice.
but i think this did get me high, i was really high that night and i didnt really smoke a lot, only some crappy hermy plant which is the only stuff i have left.

Also my little sister looked shitfaced after she drank it and said she felt better the next day, but shes always full of shit so i dont know if thats any credible, lol.

Peace

PS. if you are going to try this google it before trying anything.

If you ever plan on getting into cloning, this would maybe be a chance to "get your feet wet" and experiment on this guy under some separate cfl's or something?. Maybe a little experience now would give you confidence later when cloning a primo female...worked for me anyway. good luck!
 
GAHHH! Now I'm not sure if it's a male. How long into flowering can one wait before the risk of pollination becomes too great?

i tell new growers to experiment with them. stress them out, with hold manesium, over water, test its boundaries. its a good way to learn. worst case senario it'll hermie and turn into a female.

A friend of mine snuck down to his local city in which there was a VERY large church, VERY LARGE... so he non-chalantly in the middle of the night planted his 3 - 4 foot tall male....

Went down the next day, took video of the plant, while he was waving to "Father" in the back ground and having a conversation about "The very nice plants an shrubbery he had planted".

hehehehehe


Another time in front of the Zoo in the same city, stood a giant HUMONGOUS bird bath....

Yeap, you guessed it, I boosted him up into the bird bath, that was filled with yeas and years of accumulation of dirt and planted a male. =)

It grew all summer no one messed with it, 1000's walked by it.

#1: Why mess with those of faith?
#2: Why put males outside and fill the air with unwanted pollen that may screw some poor outdoor grow a couple a miles away with pollen blowing on the wind?

Pissing off those who may not understand us,,,,only serves their arguments on how Cannabis should remain against the law for any reason.
We need to be smarter then they are. Not more childish!
While those are funny, it didn't help the "cause" did it?

If your not going to experiment, or control the unwanted pollen. COMPOST HEAP!

I have been making qwiso with my males, doesn't taste very good but it definitely does something. Not exactly the high you would expect, more of a sedative calm relaxing effect. Would probably be a good idea to cook that into something

I had a lovely Bodhi Sunshine Daydream male and used him to pollinate my C99's. I'm looking forward to seeing what I get.
