Hi, Newbie here. i have a cannabis plant. found out it's male on flowering. Most people advice making honey oil with it since smoking it is not really an option. The plant is filled with pollen as of now and a bitt of white powder on few leaves. I'm not really sure what to do from here on. The stem has really good smell and I want to put the plant to good use. I'd like to make oil out of it if possible but I'm not sure what parts of the plant I should be using to do so and do I need to dry or systematically harvest the plant . Saw a video on using isopropyl to make oil and it seems fairly easy but I'm still confused which parts of the plant I can use, leaves, pollen, etc. Please share some light much appreciated

Might want to harvest and save some of that pollen. Not sure of best storage technique. In my state in the last week or two, a house blew up due to residents making honey oil with butane. Be careful and learn the dangers.

Yea I wouldn’t do anything with it other than collect the pollen (if you really wanted…) or compost it, or better yet turn it into an FPE

Creating multiple threads isn't gonna make that male worth harvesting

As far as using which part of plant to make oil, I use the female buds

Oil is only as good as the base product

Made multiple post because I posted in the wrong section. Am new here. Thanks for the tips though

You're not going to extract enough of anything psychoactive to make it worth bothering with for oil. There are medicinal uses for all cannabis plants though. The roots have some benefit medicinally. If it were me I'd save some pollen for future use making seeds if it's a good strain and a nice robust male.
