    Producing Feminised Seeds Using Colloidal Silver

    I'm glad that you are getting some value from my "experiment". Most people make claims based on third hand info from some illiterate stoner who automatically thinks that stronger is better. The more times that garbage is repeated, the more "truth" it becomes. I tend to think about what I...

    Male

    It does look male(ish) but the photo is slightly out of focus - another couple of days and you will know for sure.

    Producing Feminised Seeds Using Colloidal Silver

    Yup - seems to work very well, and the tiny ingots that I bought will probably last me forever.

    Producing Feminised Seeds Using Colloidal Silver

    Absolutely crystal clear - so clear that I thought that maybe there was nothing these except water.

    Producing Feminised Seeds Using Colloidal Silver

    I applied the CS for 17 days in total (probably not needed to be done that long). The second batch of Colloidal Silver was only used once as I used most of it to clear up a really infected skin condition on my dog - after 2 days of spraying the area she stopped licking the area and 2 days later...

    Think my plant is DEAD :(

    It's not dead, it's pining for the Fjords.

    Producing Feminised Seeds Using Colloidal Silver

    Just a quick update. It has been about a week since the last photos were taken. These next couple of photos clearly show that the Colloidal Silver treated plant has totally shed its female characteristics and now appears to resemble a full blown male. There are not occasional male flowers...

    Red Dragon & Magic Bud - First CFL grow using "Buds for Less" light set-up

    It is starting to look like my "CS male" will produce a fair amount of pollen - it isn't just growing the occasional pollen sac, nor is it looking like it is making nanas ... looks to me like it is a full blown male. I'm keeping a very close eye on him and will move him back into my vegging...

    I'm using two Kessil H150 Magenta lights at the moment. One is lighting a small SCROG plant and the other is lighting 3 clones in flower which are being grown for seeds. The light seems to produce very compact growth with bud development nice and tight.

    Red Dragon & Magic Bud - First CFL grow using "Buds for Less" light set-up

    The hairs in the last photos are amber/brown/shrivelling up and dieing ... that plant is gender confused and is shedding its femininity and growing balls. Have a look at the seed making thread in my sig for updates on that experiment.

    Insurance adjuster coming to house on friday

    Put a lock on the door and say that the room is rented by "Bob" and he's not home ... but there are no leaks in there anyway.

    Branches Breaking in the First Week of Flower.

    If that is the first week of flower, I think you may have vegged just a little bit too long.

    Continuing Adventures in Hempy

    I'm planning on switching from soil to Hempy some time soon, your idiot's guide to Hempy was definitely useful - thanks. Subbed.

    Quick Germ Question

    Broad Generalization Time ... Most people check their seeds when they are stoned, or ... when they are stoned, they check the seeds often. Being stoned can affect judgement, and you may inadvertantly harm your seeds. Helping the seed shed its shell is fine ... until you accidentally rip...

    The spending never stops - just like every hobby I've ever had :-) So what are you growing Steve?

    Hermie, and so what if it is?

    That is a female flower that doesn't look like it has been pollinated, otherwise the seed would be far larger by the time the pistils had dried and withered ... it is normal. There is a better than good chance that you plant has not hermied and not been exposed to any pollen.

    Aussie Growers Thread

    I may need to alter my stance on this subject a little. I'm not sure that it is just the number of hours of daylight that matters - I think that if the number of hours/minutes of daylight is over 12 and the number is increasing each day, then the plant may believe that summer is approaching...
