Hash from males?

Is it possible to make hash from male plants? If so how would you go about doing that? Any help would be greatly appreciated :blush: (grew indoors, plants about 18” tall, 4 males ((I’ve got 3 females, I just don’t want to let the males go to complete waste))

There are small amounts of cannabinoids in male plants and you can use them for hash/concentrates but you need a LOT for it to be worthwhile.

I’ve never done it and wouldn’t bother. I think there are better uses for males when you’re a small scale grower

What else can you do with them? Or what do you prefer to do with the males? I’m a first time grower (bag seeds) I’ve got 3 females and 4 males, been in 12/12 light cycle for 2 weeks and 4 days. They smell wonderful if that counts for anything haha. The plants have a pretty good amount of leaves on them, I’ve got them (males) all chopped up and drying atm.

One thing that comes to my mind is whether or not they contain pollen. I’m not sure you would want that in your hash. I doubt there are any trichomes on an immature male plant.

No pollen sacks that have opened. They had been on 12/12 light cycle for 2 weeks and 4 days, lol the males had a decent amount of leaves I’ve got them all chopped up nice and small, got them drying now; I’ll post an update of the weight of them total as soon as they are dry, that way I’ll know if it’s even worth going on. I have no idea as to what to do from that point on. It’s my first time growing (bag seeds) but I did get a tri-leaf female out of it, as well as two other females. So seeing a few males didn’t kill my hopes as much haha

If you wanted to have an enormous amount of seeds you could breed them. I usually mulch mine and add it to my compost bin.

This article mentions a few uses:
