I started spraying 1week into veg; I sprayed two times a day for 8 days and switched the light back to 12/12. After they started showing nanners I moved her outside and started covering her with a black plastic box to keep her flowering, hope no one is growing close to her because she has enough nanners to supply half of Coli. with pollen. I have a nubmer of vials packed with pollen.

This is not my write up I just copy and past from the link below. my set-up was the same as below. I had $18 in the .999 silver coin and that was it. I found a old 24vdc 100mA power supply lying around the garage and used it. I did cut the coin in half so I would not have to buy 2. I also let my generator run for 8hrs straight.hope the info below helps.

Make Your Own Colloidal Silver - Multiple Methods
Basic and Powerful method by Steve Cox
I discovered a simple addition that makes everything else fall neatly into place for the Alternative Medicine Research Foundation's original colloidal silver generator design: Saran Wrap!
Placing Saran Wrap over the top of the container and poking it down into the water in the middle prevents over-spray from reaching the clips and has the additional benefit of limiting open air contact during the electrolytic process. With the addition of this final piece to the puzzle, I believe we have a completed colloidal silver generator design that guarantees consistent results with no undesired side-processes occurring.
A picture is worth a thousand words, as they say, so I have prepared five images, labeled with explanations and instructions as necessary. I think you'll find the overview pictures below especially useful in making all this clear to the potential builder.
Using Saran Wrap to cover the top of the container prevents moisture from reaching the clips and thus becoming part of the electrolytic process. This simple addition assures you of pure colloidal silver.
Here's a complete overview of Steve Cox's variation of the Colloidal Silver Generator first developed by The Alternative Medicine Research Foundation.
Simple and Powerful Method by Dr. Jon Brooks
- Buy a 6 volt DC transformer for about 5 clams. Better yet, pick up one at a flea market for fifty cents. The current doesn't matter as this method uses less than one ma. Regarding the size of the little wall transformer, Radio Shack has 300 ma. and 800 ma. The maximum current our process uses is 1/2 ma. so any will do just fine. We are beginning to receive many reports of efficacy for all kinds of problems. There is no down side risk in these concentrations. One can use four 1.5 volt flashlight batteries in series. They will last a long time.
- Clip the connector off the end of the wire.
- Get two alligator clips from Radio Shack for a buck.
- Carefully separate the two wires. Strip the insulation off for about 1 inch.
- Connect each lead to the clip.
- You need two electrodes. Don't waste $15.00 for 1/4 oz. pieces of silver wire. Go to a any coin store and buy two Canadian Maple Leafs for about $6.50 ea. Each has 1.2 oz. of .9999 pure silver, enough to make more CS than you will ever use.
- Buy a gallon of distilled water for about seventy cents.
- Buy a tiny fish tank bubbler machine for about eight bucks. They will have the neoprene tubing as well. You will need about two feet.
- Be sure the coin is squeaky clean. Clamp them to opposite sides of an 8 oz. glass of distilled water.
- Place the tubing to the bottom of the glass.
- Fill the glass with distilled water ONLY up to the bottom of the clips. One does not want the metal, from the clips, in contact with the water, only the coins.
- Plug in the little transformer and oxygenation machine.
- Run for about five hours.
- Carefully remove the coins. There will be residue on them and you don't want that in the solution. For even more purity, use the neoprene tubing and siphon the solution into a clean glass/or plastic container. (In these parts a siphon hose is referred to as an "Arkansas credit card".)
- Keep the CS out of sunlight in an air tight bottle.
- Clean the coins thoroughly preparing for the next batch.
These are some of the best instructions I have seen to build a colloidal silver production vessel. I found them on a long forgotten website and they have served in good stead in my quest to produce high quality low voltage direct current (LVDC) colloidal silver. The design incorporates "Ole Bob's" concept of constant stirring. Use whatever your chosen power source is to generate the CS ie: 3 - 9 volt batteries, wall wart, etc.
Materials:
- 1 each Wide Mouth Quart Mason Jar
- 1 each Plastic Wide Mouth Lid (from a Miracle Whip jar or from Ball or Kerr)
- 1 each 0-5 milliamp DC Gauge ( good one is the Shurite #8302Z ) or multimeter if you have one
- 1 each RS ( Radio Shack ) 1.5-3.0 Volt DC Motor ( P/N 273-223 ).
- 1 each 2-3 inch piece of wire insulation stripped off of a piece of 14 gauge electrical wire
- 2 each RS 75 ohm Chassis Mount TV Coax Connectors (P/N 278-212)
- 1 each RS "D" Cell Battery Holder ( P/N 270-403A ) to power the stirring motor
- 1 each RS Mini-Volume Control Potentiometer ( P/N 271-215B ) to control the speed of the stirring motor
- 1 pkg RS 14" Jumper Leads Pkg of 10 (P/N 278-1156C) to connect everything
- 3 each 9 volt alkaline batteries ( if that's what you want to use to power it )
- 2 each .999 or .9999 12 or 14 gauge silver electrodes. Keep them at least 3/4 inch away from the bottom of the jar (vessel)
- 2 each RS 9 Volt Battery snap connectors to connect to the batteries.
Install the Stirring Motor in the lid ( I used hot glue gun ) so that a 2 inch or so piece of wire insulation, off of a piece of 14 gauge electrical wire, can stir freely without hitting the electrodes. It will take trial and error to determine where to place the Motor and how long to make the stirrer ( the stirrer slides conveniently right onto the shaft of the RS motor ).
You now have your version of a CS Production Vessel.
Use the Jumper leads to attach the "D" Cell battery holder with battery ( put the potentiometer in the circuit to control the speed of the stirring ) to the two connections on the stirring motor. You are now the proud owner of a working CS stirrer!!
Use more Jumper leads to attach the Power Source ( 3-9 volt batteries ) to the two electrodes. Include the 0-5 DC milliamp gauge or a multimeter into the circuit so you can read the Initial Resistance and then the final resistance when the CS is done. When you first put the Distilled Water into the vessel, the Initial Resistance should be about ½ milliamp or lower, depending on how pure your DW is. Run this setup with the stirring motor stirring the DW until the voltage is between 2.6 and 2.8 milliamps or so. It should take about 4 hours. I don't have any idea what the PPM of silver this mixture has, but it has worked wonders on many different conditions. The CS should be clear.
I am not an electrician or an engineer. I post this for informational purposes only and do not remember where it was originally posted. Use this information at your own risk!
[Four nine volt batteries can be used as well in this design. We found that utilizing the stirring device to control the current was a novel idea]
Colloidal Silver Generator II - Batteries Not Required
This AC powered colloidal silver generator II makes the ionic silver solution. AC powered generators produce colloidal silver solution with more silver particles than silver ions. So, based upon the foremost research studies, AC produced colloidal silver is supposed to be of higher quality. This unit produces a quart of the solution in 30-60 minutes depending on the voltage and amperage of the adapter.
This design is easily constructed at home for under $20, as it uses a recycled AC adapter for power. This design is simpler and more efficient than the original generator design, but not as refined as the new Colloidal Silver Generator III. The AC adapter (110V-32V/.5amp) can be easily found at garage sales, thrift shops or even in your own junk drawer. This is very economical as costly 9V batteries are not needed. This design makes a higher grade of the solution, faster, more consistently, and in larger quantities.
Historically speaking, silver has been used to treat a variety of conditions including: fungus, viral and bacterial infections and burns. It "reportedly" works by interfering with the respiration of pathogenic organisms. It is used both topically and internally; by drinking, applying to the skin, or swishing under the tongue (sublingually). Even small amounts of colloidal silver solution can kill 100% of bacteria and viruses quickly when added to samples of heavily polluted water.
Colloidal silver solution "reportedly" bolsters our immune system while dispatching single celled organisms. Because this solution is 100% lethal to pathogens, it does not create more resistant varieties like antibiotics. Applied to burns it accelerates healing and new cell growth. It can be sprayed from an atomizer on skin, or into the mouth and throat. It can also be used on infants, children and pets.
Supplies You will need to make this colloidal silver design:
-
AC adapter (mine was from an old HP 540C printer 30V/.5amps). This one seems ideal, but any 110AC adapter within an output range of 24V-36V/ at .5 amp to 1 amp will work.
- distilled water
- 1 quart mason jar - two wires, coins or bars of 99.99% pure silver (sources below)
- wood or plastic stir stick
- wood glue
- two small alligator clips, from Radio Shack
- small button toggle safety switch, from Radio Shack (not shown)
- small wooden base (4" x 8" or so)
- multi tool or Swiss army knife (to cut and saw with)
- thin wooden strips (for top cross piece to hold the silver wires)
- plastic lid (as a base for Mason jar)
- large rubber band or elastic cord (to secure AC adapter to base
- Funnel to transfer the silver elixir into storage bottles
- scotchbrite pad for cleaning silver wires after each use
- an optional aquarium air pump, to agitate the solution during electrolysis.
Making the Generator:
-
Cut wooden base to fit AC adapter, and Mason jar. Drill holes to secure adapter to base
- Cut wooden cross bar that fits top of Mason jar (1" wider than jar mouth)
- Drill two holes one inch apart in the center of cross bar (to hold silver wires). These should be just slightly larger than diameter of silver wires.
- Glue two small wooden pieces to opposite ends of wooden cross bar, so bar fits snugly onto top of Mason jar. (you can turn jar upside down on top of the cross bar to glue the ends so the fit will be exact).
- With the adapter unplugged
cut the AC adapter cord's plug (cut the low voltage wire end, not the wall plug end) and leave about one and one half feet of wire intact. - Strip about 1/2 inches off of the cut wire ends.
- Attach alligator clips to the wire ends and crimp with pliers to secure them.
- Install safety switch and/or a small light bulb* to wire between alligator clips and the AC adapter (not shown in photos, as I use a surge protector with a built in switch and light).
- Assemble generator as shown in the photo below:
- Fill mason jar with distilled water 1/4" to 1/2" from the top.
- Attach the 2 alligator clips to silver wires ends sticking up from the cross bar, and slip them through the drilled holes in the jar's wooden cross bar.
- Plug in the AC adapter to wall outlet. You are ready to begin making colloidal silver solution.
- Throw switch while muttering "It's alive... it's alive" like Doctor Frankenstein.
- Set a timer for 30 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds or so with a chopstick or other non-conductive swizzle stick. This increases the production of the beneficial silver ions and reduces white scale and black silver crystals (which you don't want in the final product). Tiny fizzy bubbles will start to form after a few minutes on one pole. A flashlight beam helps to see this. After process is completed, strain mixture through a non-bleached coffee filter or cotton cloth to remove any crystals or scale. Store the elixir in a dark glass bottle in a cool place. This will keep for several months, but it is best to make small quantities and uss when fresh.
- Wash mason jar after every use, then rinse with distilled water. Clean silver wires with scotchbrite pad to remove scale and silver crystals.
The usual dosage is 1-2 tablespoons twice per day. Some people claim that their intestinal flora can be disrupted by colloidal silver. I haven't had a problem with this myself. But if this happens to you, it is best to swish it around the mouth and/or gargle the solution and not swallow. This allows absorption of beneficial silver ions through the mucus membranes (sublingual absorption). Eating yogurt several hours later will replace any friendly bacteria lost.
Many alternative health sources "claim" that colloidal silver offers some protection from air or water-born viruses and pathogens (such as the common cold, flu, smallpox, anthrax, S.A.R.S., etc.) and recommend increasing dosage to one to two ounces, twice per day when symptoms appear. These sources state that one must take the solution for 5-7 days before full protection to take effect.
*An online reader suggested that a small light bulb be added in line as a safely feature, to show when contact is being accidentally made.

As each year goes by improvements in the process of making colloidal silver abound. The Colloidal Silver Generator III reflects these improvements over the Colloidal Silver Generator II.
The improvements Include:
- A 9v DC adapter / 300mA - 500mA (used to charge batteries) instead of the 36volt/.5 Amp AC adapter. The DC unit produces a greater quantity of silver ions and fewer silver particles than the AC powered unit. Researchers dissagree as to which is better: smaller but more abundant more silver particles, or more silver ions. Both occur during electroysis, but vary as to AC or DC current.
- A small aquarium pump to agitate the solution as it is being electrolicized. This is easier than stirring continuously, and radically improves the ppm.
Supplies You will need to make this new colloidal silver design:
-
a DV adapter (9V/ 300mA-500mA). Available at Radio Shack for about $5. I got several for .25 cents each at a thrift shop.
- distilled water
- 1/2 quart mason jar
- two 99.99% pure silver wires , coins, or bars
- aquarium air pump (often found at thrift shops)
- two insulated alligator clips, from Radio Shack
- small wooden base (4" x 8" or so)
- saw or Swiss army knife for cutting wood strips
- wood glue for jar top
- electric drill and bit
- plastic lid (as a base for Mason jar)
- large rubber band or elastic cord (to secure DC adapter to base
- wood scraps to make jar cap/wire holder
- Surge protector strip with on/off switch. So you can turn on DC .adapter and air pump at the same time.
- Funnel to transfer the silver elixir into storage bottles
- scotchbrite pad for cleaning silver wires after each use
Making the Generator
- Cut wooden base to fit DC adapter, and Mason jar.
- Cut wooden cross bar that fits top of Mason jar (1" wider than jar mouth)
- Drill two holes one inch apart in the center of cross bar (to hold silver wires). These should be just slightly larger than diameter of silver wires.
-
Glue two small wooden pieces to opposite ends of wooden cross bar, so bar fits snugly onto top of Mason jar. (you can turn jar upside down on top of the cross bar to glue the ends so the fit will be exact). Note: To use silver bars or coins instead of silver wire electrodes, this design must be modified. I suggest permanantly attaching the alligator clips to the side of the wooden crossbar, with the clips pointed down (1/2" below bottom of the crossbar). In this way you can attach any silver coin or bar to the alligator clips.
- With the adapter unplugged cut the DC adapter plug (cut the low voltage wire end, not the wall plug end) and leave most of the wire attached.
- Strip about 1/2 inch off of each of the cut wire ends.
- Attach alligator clips to the wire ends and crimp with pliers, or solder to secure them.
- Install safety switch and/or a small light bulb* to wire between alligator clips and the AC adapter (not shown in photos, as I use a surge protector with a built in switch and light).
- Assemble generator as shown in the photo below. Make sure that the air pump is rubber banded to the base, or it will vibrate off. :
- Fill mason jar with distilled water 1/4" to 1/2" from the top.
- Attach the 2 alligator clips to silver wires ends sticking up from the cross bar, and slip them through the drilled holes in the jar's wooden cross bar.
- Plug in the AC adapter to wall outlet. You are ready to begin making colloidal silver solution.
- Throw switch on the surge protector while muttering "It's alive... it's alive" like Doctor Frankenstein.
- Set a timer for three to four hours minutes.
- Make sure that both the pump and the DC adapter are working. You can hear the pump, but might have to test the DC output with a voltage tester.
- The bubbler enhances the quality of the silver solution and reduces white scale and black silver crystals (which you don't want in the final product). Tiny fizzy bubbles will start to form after a few minutes on one pole. A flashlight beam helps to see this.
- After process is completed, strain mixture through a non-bleached coffee filter or cotton cloth to remove any crystals or scale. Store the elixir in a dark glass bottle in a cool place. This is reported to keep for several months, but it is best to make small quantities as needed. Fresh is best.
- Wash mason jar, and air pump tube after every use, then rinse with distilled water. Clean silver wires with scotchbrite pad to remove scale and silver crystals, then rinse. Dry then store all components of the generator together in a dust-proof tupper or container.
If you use CS on one of two clones and pollinate the other clone with the other, do you effectively make clone seeds?
thanks budd, i was just reading over that thread myself!
this may seem like a lame question...but....
what's wrong with just using some purchased colloidal silver?

Really interesting, nice work mate
Thanks Brotha.
What is the best colloidal silver on the market to buy? There must be something out there that is strong enough to do the job?
im about to try 2 cs products more or less side by side
