Hey guys, I got unlucky and one of my plants is showing male flowers. I read enough topics that I can tell them apart pretty well ( thank god for this forum and all the wise growers) and I was out of town and my cousin and a friend would check on them, which they did a terrible job at it. Today we got back and the first thing I notice is that my tent is not closed properly and one of the Windows is leaking a bunch of light. I correct those things right away and hope it was only like that for a bit ( it wasn't) anyways I waited until the lights came on and as I was checking them I noticed the male plants. And now looking back I wish I hadn't freaked out because I should have put a plastic bag on the stems that had the flowers and then cut them down. I might have some seeds this grow D: goes to show that you can't leave just anyone to take care of the girls. So what I did was just cut the branches off, check all the other bid to see if I could find any males I decided that it was only those two. I took the pics took the fan leaves on and put them in a paper bag. So basically what I'm getting at with my rant is: they're 5 weeks into flowering. The buds are not really that frosty or big at all but they have good smell and they only had 3 more weeks before harvest ETA could I extract some THC from this or should I just throw it away? Also is there anything I should've done better? If you made it this far thanks so much reading and thanks in advance for the advise Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum mobile app
So I talked to couple of grower friends and they told me to cut down the plant which is what I did as soon as I could Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum mobile app
If the trichomes are developed then you can definitely extract thc. Sent from my VS985 4G using Grasscity Forum mobile app
