Here is my experiment.
This is the color of the CS i get from 12hrs with a car battery and 1000 silver (from jeweler) and i sprayed one half of the plant 6 times a day for 3days unfiltered CS and it burnt that half badly, now i want to spray the good side once a day with CS (filtered CS through tissue paper,) this plant is a reveg already looking to start flowering, i cant really tell what she is doing but i brought her indoor and put her under 12,12 to make sure she continues to flower.
To feminize i need to know if this color CS is ok.

Oh my god, this thread is still kicking it! Why isn't it a sticky yet?
Hey pheno, thanks so much for this thread, it is fantastic.
It is so easy to make female seeds, I can't believe everyone doesn't do it all the time. For me it is better than cloning. I run very small grows, space is a total premium so I really can't afford a seperate chamber for mothers, or cloning.
Also, I can't actually keep up with the amount that I'm growing so I don't really need to grow continuosly. Doesn't matter if you've got fem seeds, shut the operation down and start it back up when you're ready, and there's no need to worry about putting in a whole lot of effort and ending up with males.
LOVE IT
One more thing. When you tell people about it, they think you're a mad scientist. So fucking cool.

I just got a call from my buddy. He chopped two of the seed plants. He said we have hundreds of fat seeds from each plant.
He planted 40 seeds, about 8 or 9 from each plant and every single one sprouted.
The seeds had almost no drying time.
Tiresias Mist and Floralicious Plus get my full endorsement.

I am getting a bit tired of people telling me that by using colloidal silver on feminized plants I am going to get hermaphrodites.
Can anyone who believes this explain to me how I am going to get a hermaphrodite from two plants that do not have a "Y" chromosome?

Great thread.
I wanted to ask, once the plant has started to show balls, does that mean it will continue to throw balls until it dies (won't revert back to making pistils)?
Even without anymore CS spraying?
Thanks.

i have a few questions.
1-at what point during the bloom stage would one expose successfuly swiched female/male (whatever) pollen to a female for seed production ?
2-at what point during the bloom stage is it best to expose a female plant to swiched pollen ?
3- what method(s) would you recommend for polonization if i COULDNT keep the plant treated with colloidal silver growing, exposed to the females in close proximity during most of or the entire bloom stage ?
4-what method(s) would you recommend for polonization if i COULD keep the plants treated with colloidal silver exposed to the females in close proximity during most of or the entire bloom stage ?
5- how much do you apply ? a misting so the leaves and stems are covered in small droplettes or enougf for it to be dripping off ?
6- do i rince the colloidal silver spray off with water after ats been sprayed ?
7- can i let the cs drip into the soil or whatever medium im using ?

Nobody?
I just wonder if it is OK to stop spraying once i can notice the first ball?
My plant is looking pretty deformed and weak, i don't want to overdo it and kill it.
Thanks.

i killed mine but that was also nute burn i think its still a legitimate question do you stop and the plant is fully a male?
Bubble & Squeak did you filter the CS? i dident with mine and that had negative effects on the plant making it weak and stunted.

I don't think CS affects the health at all.
I used distilled water and made the brew as strong as I could and sprayed the shit out of my plant, it stayed growing full speed, totally healthy and free big ball.
Healthy feminized seeds all over the show.
Once you've got as many of the seeds out of the plant just hash the rest, male and all. You end up with heaps of seeds and a reasonable sized crop of smokable weed

Just wait. Its all there, it always shows up eventually. There will already be some getting out that you can't really see, but I'd say in a week or two there will be pollen all over the place

I have read that sometimes the pollen won't drop and you have to break the flowers open?
Once the first balls show, is it fine to stop spraying FarmerGreen?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it is. I've only done it once, but I'm pretty sure I stopped spraying once I saw them. Once its male, its male. I imagine its the same as a regular bud, it just needs a bit of time to ripen.
I remember even after I pulled the plant and it was shrivelled up and dying unopened balls were opening up and pollen kept pouring out.
Saying all this, I've you've got some collloidal left, it won't hurt to keep spraying for a few days. The plant keeps growing and producing halls for quite a long time, its not a one off thing.

Well it's not unusual for the male of a species to still be trying to spread his seed on his deathbed.

Will a female plant sprayed with CS seed itself, or does the process of putting off male flowers stop that?

Yes: a female plant sprayed with CS will seed itself. That was my experience last year with an NL female and a Jack Herer female. I got quite a lot of NL seed and a decent amount of JH seed. However, and this is a huge however, some (not all) of those seeds gave me male plants when I grew 'em out this year. They may have been herms, but they looked like straight-up males. Am presently flowering some females from that lot, though, and they're looking good.

I've heard opinions that S1s can be more intersexed, but you know what they say about opinions.
