did you start spraying while they were still in veg state or were they flipped when you began spraying them?
Thanks

hey, super awesome thread Pheno. one of the most, if not thee most, beneficial thread on icmag. being able to save precious strains in seed form is the greatest thing ever!
anyways, quick couple questions for anyone willing to help me out...
1. which adapter out of these two would you chose? (or should I look for a better one??)
2. I want to flower out some clones for strictly for seeds. I have a gdp strain from harborside that I ran outdoor. I love it and want to keep it for future use for when I have a legit , safe indoor location.
How little lumens/watts can I use to flower out a couple clones for seed making purposes? I have a crap load of cfls, and 2 , 2 bulb 4 ft long floros. I also have a 150, 600,and 1k. I rather use the cfls/floros but if they wont suffice ill up the wattage.
thanks in advance!

If you scroll the last pages of this thread you'll find more infos about what I did. However I start spraying like 20 days after the switch to 12\12.
So the reversed clone has not enough time to pollinate and let the females make seeds in the same run, and I have to flowering some new clones to make seeds.
I'm pretty sure both adapters are ok. Higher the output voltage and ampere value, faster you'll obtain CS.
However I would use the less potent, as maybe, low voltage is better because it doesn't give so much power to electrolysis and Ag atoms fail to reach the other electrode, more than using higher voltages.
I think you should ask yourself: how many seeds I want to make?
If you need few seeds, a couple of CFLs for a total of 100W will make hundred or few hundred of seeds if everything's ok. More W = more seeds, as the flowers do.

I'm currently finishing some seed clones in my south windows. It's winter here of course, so the days are short, but the plants seem to love the sun (free lumens), and are nice Ornamentals, as well. lol
Separately sticking bananas look impressive, but are a bit dry.
More productive are loose flowers that are falling apart.
If you remove them with tweezers on time, neighboring get more space and a chance to mature.
After each act of collecting the mature flowers, I sprayed the buds.
This supports male hormones until the complete end of flowering, and provide maximum yield of pollen.
After removed the first bananas batch, do you store them or use directly on target female flowers?
I'm still spraying each day and everything is going fine. Tonight I'll try to open some bananas and se if there is pollen, and if yes I start to pollinate the female target clones to make S1.
This thread is just epic
Here you can see several types of flowers.
The most productive are such as in the center and on the right.
There are already visible on your pictures.
Here is the difference in productivity.
Loose flowers are easy to open and give the pollen
and dense bananas remain intact.
I cleaned the pollen from the fiber, slightly dried and stored in a glass vial in the refrigerator.
In the experiment sequentially was attended by several plants, each of which,
on the treated branches produce pollen
and female flowers on untreated branches were pollinated and grown fem-seeds.

This is crazy idk whats going on
Last batch i made i used the 9v battery but this time im using a switchable 18 / 24 v adapter
I put my volt meter to it and the 18 reads right at 20 and the 24 reads at 28
Anyway the ppm of the distilled water was zero , now its at 3 ppm but its been sitting their for 2 days now so its going very slowly and idk why
i went ahead and put my mason jar on a heating pad to see if it helps anything because some of the youtube vids i seen they were making the c.s on the stove using the heat ( Idk if adding heat helps or not )
But 2 days and its only at 3 ppm and my distilled water is still crystal clear
Im just confused right now ugh

My brain hurts....sorry, but this is not rocket science.
High Country,
True that, but we still have much to learn
Buddaluva,
quite simply you have no electrolysis going on, so the issue is probably with the rig itself - if you have a multimeter (or friend with) you can test that

Just a guess, but does your silver have any sort of a coating on it? Like a wax or polycoat.
Seems like your surface for electro, is limited?
I'm of course assuming, that your power is active.

2 Legal Co, it's always good to think outside of the box BUT, even if he was using a dodgy "wannabe-silver" metal it would still conduct electricity to some extent which would produce at least NOTICEABLE visual effects, so i cannot see the medium (the metal or composite alloy) being the issue here ...
Buddaluva seems to be getting no electrolysis despite having a metallic medium, so my money would be on there's an issue with his rig itself unfortunately (the colloidal silver generator itself, which would be disappointing because it looks like he's made a very slick CS generator complete with alligator clips and I take my hat off for a nice piece of engineering -- a CS generator without alligator clips is like a hamburger without pickles ... nice, but not as nice as it could be )
btw a multimeter is all thats required to test its health/viability

Sorry, I thought that there was a 'minimal' increase in PPM initially. Which to me would indicate a start of electrolysis, such as cut ends, that then tapered off. Perhaps the ends became coated?
I've had little to do with plating 1st hand. Observed some musical instrument plating 2nd hand, years ago. There has to be something simple,,, it's not that complex.
I think you're probably correct bro, nicely picked up either way

The silver is good its the .9999 i got it from atlas nova
Iv made 1 batch with it already using the 9v batteries
I think its the adapter , even though the volt meter is reading the volts for some reason its just not working
Iv hooked it back up to the batteries and its working again i can see the silver leaching off it
So i guess i will just get another adapter when i can and try it again , so until then i will just have to stick with the batteries
Thanks for the help fellas

If I was to guess (and I am), I'd say that the current/amps from the transformer is/are too low. So you read volts, but not enough power to flow across/through the water. The water is only a semi-conducter.
