I'm no expert by far but pretty sure that's a male

See i thought that as well but the top has a bunch of little hairs. Or is that normal for a male?

It's hard to see from the photo, it can of course be both at the same time. Sometimes purely down to genetics sometimes stress can make them hermie. Had it happen to me on my last grow luckily it was close enough to harvest time to ignore it. How old is this plant?

Its about 9 weeks old. I wasnt even sure if the seed i found would survive but once it was planted it just took off and actually suprises me how well it did considering ive never grown weed before lol so ive had HIGH hope

Well males generally do tend to shoot up with little foliage. I had a friend who done a similar thing and honest to god had no clue that there was a male and female lol. Ended up asking me to come and have a look at his monster plant... when I got there I was speechless. It was like a 6 foot beanstalk!

Well are males good for anything then? Could I use the whole plant and maybe get a little oil out of it? Haha

I'm I'm correct males do produce thc just in really low amounts. I guess if you had enough leaves you could make some hash, but to me it's a lot of effort for not much gain

if its a real good strain? you could keep it in a separate room, box, etc. mature it and collect the pollen then using a small watercolor type of brush, get a bottom branch of a female plant pollinated so you have your own seeds?

Looks like a hermie, I see pistils and male pollen sacks. It will still have THC, because even male plants have some THC (Drastically less, but it is still there), and if you process the whole plant, or at least all the bits that have resin on them, then yes you should be able to get something from it, either oil or cannabudder, or however you choose to extract it.
