Absolutely helpful.I'm no expert, but my selections for males have seemed to go well for me so far so I'll give my two cents Ray Black. I haven't really popped anything yet specifically looking for a male, really i just look for desireable traits in every plant before it sexes and if it brings what I want to the table its going to be used lol. If it shows frost in veg, smells early on stem rubs, has nice structure/vigor, etc. The tigers milk male I had was on point across the board and was actually the closest to a perfect plant I've grown probably. Thick strong stems, super stinky, vigorous, didn't mind a lack of root space, and actually showed the most frost in veg that I've ever seen. I expected it to be a female before it showed sex but was more excited that it wasn't lol. I think you can use the guidelines of resin production, structure/vigor, terp profile and concentration, and whatnot but I honestly believe that intuition plays a role too. I had a good feeling about that plant early on, and it was for good reason. If you gravitate towards one, then pay close attention because there is probably a reason. Also don't be afraid to choose two males if they catch your attention, the diversity they bring could give you distinctly different but equally desirable plants from the same seed run and make progressive generations better while allowing diversity. Sorry this is so long but chucking is exciting for me lol, I hope something from this helps.
I also use the intuition of my semi green thumb
I think about it like, some girls will prefer my room, and some won't.
If they meet some of my criteria for a keeper AND looks healthy (meaning they like my envirionment) then I look closer
I like plants that like me, critical I think
Right?
Also, keeping 2 males is a great idea
Thank you
