Males don't produce bud. They produce pollin sacks that will pollinate your females. When your females are pollinated they put all there energy into seed development instead of growing more bud and tric's. You can still smoke the pollinated females, but it will be loaded with seeds and weaker then bud that wasn't pollinated.

u wont have the thc content that a female whos never been pollinated will have. males are no good...u will be wasting time, energy and other stuff on a useless male plant too...i dunno...i've never smoked seeded bud...but i would've got rid of the male as soon as the pollen sacs showed...

my friend just messed up his outdoor and pollinated his two females. He got 42 g's of bud and about 1500 seeds, so if u like that ratio go ahead and leave ur male in there.

it seemed like the only thing we were smoking was the outer casing of seeds. He wasnt too pissed though because the male was a purp strain and hes got seeds for a long time. best thing to do was sift out the stems and seeds and make some butter.
