hi all i was thinking of buying some seeds from seedsman seeds particularly thier original skunk no1 and there northern soul have any of you used this seed bank before or tryed or expierienced any of there plants do they hermie alot im looking for some femmed skunk seeds that are good for not going hermie that are also resonably priced and at £22 for 5 femmed beans seems to be a good deal

<Snip! Please read, mark, learn and inwardly digest the "Strain Talk Rules", above. Thankyou.>

Hey GD -
I've got a 90% def male out of a pack of femmed Nemesis - other two not sexed as yet. Plant has definately been stressed mind.
Charlesweedmore reported males from femmed Seedsman stock as-well, I think he was growing Sk#1 and White Widow femmed.
Other the other handy Chewable Madness I think did well with femmed Power Africa - http://www.uk420.com/boards/index.php?showtopic=168852

Hope that helps.

I planted one female Seedsman Power Africa seed this year and it turned out female, no signs of herming after 3 weeks.

i cracked two white widow fems and one (the healthiest, best looking one obviously ) turned out to be a fully blown male.
i sent seedsman a message via their website, but got no response.
still, i'm about to harvest the female tonight and should have a few seeds, so all is not lost
the plant smells lovely, by the way.

I bought some seeds the other day and because they were out of stock and had a late delivery of the ones i orderd they gave me 5 free seeds! Thai/Kush x Skunk, 3 planted 3 popped! Yet to see what they`re like,don`t think they`re fems though.

the seedsman r ok ,but not fems , skunk #1 is what i would get , its the same as flying dutchmans the pure, its a easy plant to grow and a nice smoke,so get them ,and i wouldnt get femmed ya better of getting regular , all this femed seed is easy to stress out and get bannanas insted of buds

I got a pack for 10 fem white widow and 9 germinated and all where Fem RESULT!

Are you sure the freebies are Thai/Kush x Skunk? I got some freebies from him a while ago that were Thai Haze x Skunk. Have a couple about four weeks in flower at the mo. Looks like they're going to take a long time - 14+ weeks. I wonder has he crossed the Thai Haze with a Kush and then crossed with the skunk to bring the flowering time down. Rapidly losing the Thai Haze genes though.

i got 5 femmed mama mia from there put 3 in 3 popped, all female bout 3 week off finishing..

any signs of hemis there? sum r ok, but i prefer the regular seeds if ya can spot the males in time , its like rideing a bike ,once ya seen a male ya no

no sign of hermies yet, but its quite possible as ive over fed em slightly so ive sorted that.. and for a day they got more light than they should other day cuz one of me timers was out due to user error...looks good so far though and they smell really nice so fingers crossed...

ye i just look for male claws coming out of p,s wile they r buding,and its normaly in the last few weeks that bannanas come out,so you get ya crop still, good luck and keep it green

to be fair my widow was treated like shit and flowering in temps regularly hitting 34c and not a sign of a nana. seemed pretty tough,

cool , if you get femmed seeds ya better of with easy strains like sk#1 and n lights , due to being a beginer its better to start wiv fems , and treat them rite and all should be fine,not slaging fems of at all,as ive had sum good and sum bad but thats life.

yeah, to be honest my first grow had a couple of male flowers but i'd have been very surprised if that hadn't. from loft to window sill, to drobe...
i'm going regular next time, got some RSC Lebanese to try

e2a: i think that finding the proper male in this grow convinced me that growing regular seeds will be fine. easy to spot the males really.

thanx for the replies guys and girls i have no probs sottin males its just i can only grow 1 plant from start to finnish so hae no space or time to grow males plus iv never had a hermie prob from femmed beans so far so good i supose

Ive grown out Seedsmans White Widow & northern soul, both were great ! The widow is a wicked yielder with a nice berry/lychee smell to it, and the northern soul was just hardcore stinky skunyness all around !

Ive still got both in my mum room, the Northern Soul has achieved near legendary status in my local area cos of the potency & stink so its staying for a while

So ive been pretty happy over all with seedsman genetics !

Just to add I was never sure if that plant was male or female as it basically refused to flower, and I gave up and binned it - but then again I did try to suffocate it (poor ventilation + heat ) + poison it (poor ventilation and exposed chipboard + heat = formaldehyde) + poison it some more (giving it nute doses as if it was flowering properly) + and it was LST'd to with in an inch of it's life........so I don't think should reflect badly on Seedsmans genetics.

The other two Nemesis fems I'm growing in a different space are very girly girls already packing on the resin and trichs after only 3 weeks on 12/12 ............

hi,my first grow was seedsman skunkno 1 a few years back,the amount af abuse it can handle is amazing,seedsman seeds are ok.

And they grew into two very tasty ladies and with a kick-ass active 'n' social smoke , but with a bit of a bite.......whitied me girlfriend last night.....she's not whitied in about 10 years.......
