Here a look at the Pyramid Seeds Auto Purple that is dried and going in a curing jar. I didn't bother weighing it. I'd guess over an ounce. This is one of those strains with a lower THC of around 12%. But, it has a very special taste, smell and high. I took the picture on white copy paper next to a black remote to show the dark purple color. This is the darkest bud I have ever grown.

(B) Floral apex from a monoecious specimen fully covered by pistillate flowers on its apical section, and showing male floral buds in its middle section: arrow points to a staminate flower. (C) Apex from a gynoecious plant, showing multiple pistillate flowers. (D) STS treated gynoecious plant showing male bud formation on its apical section coexisting with pistillate flowers: arrow points to a staminate flower. Scale bars: 5 mm.

Interesting. I’ve not ever dealt with colloidal silver. Thanks for the link.
It works the same way that (STS) or (GA) does by blocking the production of ethylene in the female pollen donor.
This statement was taken from GWE. The concentration of silver ions in the water acts as an ethylene inhibitor/antagonist on the plant, which forces the plant to create male pollen sacs instead of female buds.

Here is my second round of greenhouse auto flowers. I directly sowed these in the 10 gallon pots. I'll point out that this will be my first time trying to grow a second round of auto's in my greenhouse. The Sweet tooth and Lemon Skunk were both free seeds so I have no breeder information about them. The Lemon Skunk and Sweet tooth are 16 days old and the Pineapple Express and Blueberry Kush are 13 days old. All these plants are a bit pale at this point as these 10 gallon pots have a 1/2 gallon pot size of seed starter mix in the center where these are started. I find they do much better with a weak starter mix.
