If female marijuana plants get pollinated, do they still flower and produce weed?
First, a plant can’t be pollinated UNLESS it flowers. Flowers produce both pollen and seeds. No flowers, no pollen, no pollination. So the flowers MUST be there. I always considered the whole plant to be “weed,” but what I think you are asking is if it is possible to get high from using marijuana that was pollinated. The answer is yes. The reason that marijuana growers and users prefer flowers that were not pollinated is that producing seeds uses the plant’s resources. Those resources would otherwise go toward producing more flowers, and more of the active ingredients (THC and other cannabinoids). So flowers that were not pollinated, and therefore not producing seeds, are more potent and valuable. In ancient times (the 60s and 70s), nearly all marijuana had seeds in it.
