should i take out male for another ??

[bud boy]

i have a quite big plant i think its male cos it aint showin no pistils an the smaller plants are. if i take this male plant out the pot would i be able to replant a different plant in that pot because the male is just taking up space. but if i do this the pot may have male roots left behind, would the old male roots affect my new plant??

any help is good!!

I would use new soil. the left over roots will rot and cause a problem.
