Hi everyone, about eight weeks ago I bought some weed from a friend and it was full of seed's, this stuff stank so bad but really potent, I decided to take a stab at growing a few, I killed a couple at first but in the end had four healthy plant's.
Just the other day I woke up and saw the first signs of sex, all four were female . I would really like to post some pics but I'm still trying to navigate my way around so any help there would be nice, and maybe some of you guys could tell me what strain they are.

Welcome Derker
Deffinately looks indica.
If you keep it from seeding and take care of it it will be better than the smoke it came from.

Good luck.

Sativa has long slinder leaves.
Sativa's also grow taller than indica's
Indica plants have shorter and wider leaves.

Nah.
If it has been pollinated it will start seeding within 7 days.
Get rid of the males and hermies and you will have what is called sensimillia.

I heard if they get stressed they can take on male characteristics, does this mean they can pollenate themselves? or just look like males.

stress can cause hermies and males.
You want to keep whatever light cycle you are running constant. (24/0 or 18/6 or whatever)
You also want to keep the temps between 70-80 deg F.
You also need good intake and exhaust for fresh air.

These things can cause stress if not monitored.

I'm going to put them on 12/12, the largest one is about three feet tall and three ft wide it's in the largest pot, the other three are half the size,they are in smaller pots. I know the pics suck .
This is all on four cfls and a two bulb 4ft flouresent shop light.
It's hard for me to take pics of them cause I have a shade over them and it's a pain in the ass.

It's almost impossible to tell a strain from a pic or even looking at a plant in person. There are sooooo many variations, the best you can hope for is a general pheno - like sativa/indica. Maybe you can narrow it down a bit based on color and smell, like white widow, skunk, blueberry haze, etc. But even within these phenotypes, there can be dozens of variations and hybrids.
