Nah buds is where it's at. I know some dudes will smoke males to judge the potency that they will pass on.

Structure, flower structure, frost, and smell is the main factors I look at. I've used early males and the later ones, I don't see a downside to either givin the right circumstances. Frosty males are a lil more common than they used to be, but still a big factor. 2 of those 4 DDB's have a lil frost on them now, wouldn't be surprised if the other 2 show some frost as well. I was thinking about it the other day like, what a problem to have, lol. I have to narrow it down through other traits.
I did just learn a real obvious trick to know what your looking at with males. Once they're flowering the leaf shape should tell you which "grandparents" it's leaning toward. I just look at leaf shape and Google say.... purple Indica or stardawg or cookies in this case. Don't know why it took that long for me to figure this one out, but it's more than obvious once you combine it with the structure you're seeing.

For sure man. I still have enough of this pollen to make around 1000 beans. It's not enough to make a line to share with everyone. So what I'm going to do with the rest is mix it with flour and create 8-10 small batches with some of my special clones. These will be searched for stellar males and females. I can f2 these lines and get as many seeds as I want to search through and use the females I keep for reversals, etc. It's pretty much like pollen donor lines, lol.

We have some really nice looking and smelling prospects outdoors. A couple of the cnc f2's are looking really nice, one smells just like her momma and is frosting up pretty heavy early on here. Last pic is a mandarin cookies bagseed, that has the frost and terps so far, hoping it turns out because that was some damn good smoke. Been running cheapo led's morning and evening, as the sun moves south I have trees in the way, lol.

And I just collected a lil pollen from the DDB male that I have outside. I hit two branches on this lady, she's another that's catching my eye. She might even have a better creamy nose than her mom, it has that purple punch ish smell too it I mentioned earlier. So a small batch of DDB f2's are in the oven as well as sunset sherbet, wedding cake, gelato 41, and about 6 others have been hit with the same DDB male. I can't remember the rest without my list, I'll have to post that later.

Sunset Sherbet
I've had Gelato 45 and 33 "Larry Bird" several times and thought 45 was better. Haven't tried 41 yet though.

I had to share this with you guys, never seen one quite like this. This is that same plant I posted not too long ago with the bonus leaf. When I first noticed it, I was thinking I might have finally found a lil bud on a fan leaf. It's cupped and hollow on the inside, almost looks like a calyx at first glance though.
