Assuming the pictures I tried to attach actually attach and this post works:

This is a plant my buddy found on and empty lot he was surveying. I had it outside for awhile and then inside for 1-2 weeks @ 24/0 under florescents than 18/6 for another 1-2 weeks. It would apppear to be growing, what look to me like (based on pics I've seen), polin sacks. This is my first time so I wanted to make sure my assesment is correct before I get rid of it.

Can I do anything with the male?

Make Hash?

Smoke polin?

Is there any thc content at all in males?

Sorry I can not tell by those pics.
Very little to nill thc in males.

Put in 12light/12dark.
You should see white hairs (pistils) if a female.
Should see signs of sex in a week or two.

If you have not been to newbie central yet go and introduce yourself.
Also I would go to growfaq's up top and read about sexing.
Welcome and happy growing...

Does anyone have anything they do with males?...

Its male. I'm 99% sure. Males are good if you have a female and want to make alot of seeds from that particular strain. If you just want to grow bud though then trash him.

Personally when I get a male, I tie it to the top of my car, then drive around at night, pollinateing all the females I pass : ) I call it... Spreadin the love : )

would it be possible if you are growing like four females to just fertilize one of them to make more seeds to grow with and give to friends? also, about how many seeds are produced per plant?

thanks for any info

put the male in a different room. maybe even outside at this point. collect the pollen in a small jar. use a small modeling paint brush to pollinate lower buds or one or 2 top buds. i seeded a branch last year that was pretty much a 24" cola on a side branch. i fully seeded the whole branch. got over 300 seeds. i did pollinate several time throughout the summer. the same branch. so 24" of solid seeded bud gets you enough for all your friends.

wow, 300 seeds
so seed sellers charge around 50 US for 10 seeds - by making your own seeds you get about $1500 worth to pass around

i think i'll set aside one male in a different room and when the balls open i'll brush it on the bud

smart move, since it is still a good plant, whatever the sex is;)
