Update to my previous post regarding the seeds I had gotten from Amstredam Marijuana Seeds.com
Well, of the 3 Super Skunk, 1 was a female, the other 2 were males.
Of the 5 Free seeds supplied to my with my order from Amstredam Marijuana Seeds.com, 1 was a female and 4 were males.
The Super Skunk Female grew to produce faily large buds and the buds were covered in the frosting of white THC filled trichomes and the buds did look like the pictures on thier website and pics of Super Skunk plants I have seen on the internet. As the plant matured, it did start to emit the ordor so reminiscent of a stinky skunky like plant that I enjoyed soo much before in the not so far past.
The Free seed mature female was a little different. The buds and cola were light and airy and not as dense as the Super Skunk strain. And the trichome formation was not as "frosty" as with the Super Skunk Strain. As the plant matured through the flowering stage, this plant odor was like a lemon and pepper smell. When smoked, the high was more cerebral and unlike the full body stone of the Super Skunk. I may not clone this female.
I am attributing the abismal results on the growing condition due to this being my first grow in a while. ( I AM A REAL NICE GUY)
Fast forward to 2010.......
In the new year I germinated the remaining seeds from Amstredam Marijuana Seeds.com which were 20 free seeds and the remaining 4 Super Skunk seeds.
Of the 20 remaining free seeds, only 9 germinated, the rest did not. Of the 4 remaining Super Skunk seeds, NONE GERMINATED. Too bad....Sooo sad.
Luckily, when I grew that 1 Super Skunk female last year, I snipped off only the buds from only 80% of the plant. The lowest little buds I did not harvest and left them on the plant.
Since I wanted to grow the Super Skunk again, and none of the remaining seeds germinated from Amstredan Marijuana Seeds.com, I put the Super Skunk plant back into a vegatative state. It started to produce sprouts ( I will clone this plant) from the small little buds and flowers that I did not harvest.
Sooooo Now, I am into the 6th vegetation week for the remaining seeds I had gotten from Amstredam Marijuana seeds.com and of the 9 free seeds I got from Amstredam Marijuana Seeds.com, all are growing fine. None have died so far.
Also, of the 9 plants so far, 2 have already presexed as female, 1 presexed as male. Of the remaining 6 plants, 2 are real close to showing thier sex as well. Probably by the end of the week, I will switch to 12/12 after I harvest some clones from the females.
I just want to make clear that I bought these seeds from Amstredam Marijuana Seeds.com because they are other seed banks out there in which the name is very simular to each other but are not the same. I will list them below.

Hello all.
I ordered from AMS July 20th '09. After I ordered, I got emails telling me that my order was received, my order is being process, my CC has been billed and my order has shipped.
They only supplied a order number for use on hteir site for order tracing purposes. The seeds were delivered 6 days later (SoCal).
I got the Super Skunk strain (10 seeds + 20 free seeds). Germinated 6 SS seeds with 5 sprouting and one dead. Germinated 10 of the free seeds, 9 sprouted and 1 dead.
Put them into some good growing soil. Of the skunk, 3 grew and 2 died. Of the free seeds, 5 grew and 5 died.
Currently, I have just ended the 4th week of veg. I will post pics.
