How does male plant ruin female crop?

Yea so my question is if you let a male pollinate your females would you still get bud. Also would you get seeds to grow more plants, if you do seems like you get bud and free seeds. I might be wrong so how does this work and how does letting a male plant grow "ruin" your females.:confused:

its the difference between schwag regs and sensimillia chronic. also usually quadruple as valuble if your crop is seedless.

I agree with the super taco... with exxtra cheese. You pay about 100 bucks for 10 seeds, thats 10 dollers a seed. seeds are worth more their weight than weed, because hundreds of times their weed can come from them.
so yea I dont get why people dont just grow a male and let it fertilize their first crop, you can get hundreds of seeds from just one plant... so... that saves you... 1000 bucks in seeds... or if youre a nice person like me, you can give them to felow growers you know...:) but not people online of course

The plant will focus its energy on producing seeds instead of buds, cloning is the better route if you want more plants...

even the best of chronic can have seeds... and still be the best chronic. just with seeds. that can grow more of the best chronic... I personaly would pay 2 times average price for seeded top quality bud, than seedles... as long as it wasnt a hermie that seeded itself, or got seeded from a he/she.
than you have 2 times the fun!
its just commen sence isn't it? seeds kick ass...:blsmoke:

you do have a point, but i like growing different strains every crop.

clones are defnetly better than growing from seeds, but unlike seeds they cant be stored, kept without care, or be stored in small places.
and some crazy shit might appen like a crazy bug infestation that kills everything, or mold or some other terible thing... just to play it safe.
I'm growing seeded bud, and the buds look crazy, though it is really seedy, and growth has slowed since seeding, but its just a one timr thing, in a month I'll have some good almost free smoke, and more seeds than I'll know what to do with. and than. I will posibly throw a party or two.

and who dosnt like growing different strains :) but this way you can always go back to a strain you had a year ago without having to buy more seeds :)

I can see it as a one time thing, i've actually thought about doing it to just on plant or collecting pollen to do it later, jus to have a stash... sounded like you just meant in general all the time.. LOL

If you dont have the room to store clones then it would seem logical to do it with the more expensive strains. Although the strain im growing right now was only 20$ for 10 pack, so I wont do that with my crop.

all cannabis strains can crosbread, theres some good information about it in the FAQ
its pretty complicated stuff... creating a hybrid strain requires you to grow several generations of seeded bud.
why?... nobody knows... no I'm sure they do, but are just to stoned to . write it or somthing.
I'm writing alot... too alot... I need to stop

It's about stabilizing the specific traits you want from each plant. That's why you have to grow several generations to make sure you got the genetics you want.
