femizing help

None of the other methods worked so far?

CS worked great for me. I have pollinated one female with the pollin collected from the hermi in the picture I posted a couple of pages back. I plan on pollinating a branch of another female shortly. I have already pulled some seeds to inspect(10 total). Out of 10 only 1 white one. The rest were dark brown with no black stripes. I was kinda hoping for the tiger stripe, but I guess you can't have everything. LOL. So I'm gonna leave the rest in the oven for a bit. When I get back from vaction(Oct 18-25) I will planting some of these seeds to see what the out come is. Don't want to start any more plants till I can watch them.



On a side note. The plant I used CS on. It grew pollin sacks for a couple of weeks, and stopped growing new calyxs at that time. I noticed last week that it has stopped growing pollin sacks now and started groing calyxs again. No more pollin sacks are growing on it. I have cut the majority of them off to collect pollin from it. At first it seems like it turned the plant to full blown male these past couple of weeks. But it seems to have stoped pollin production and is only growing calyxs again. I was actually suprised to see this. Makes me kinda glad I used this plant cause it seems to be rejecting the hermi in it with all it can.

How many ppm was your ionic silver solution?

The Colloidal Silver I made I have no idea how many PPM it is. I made a CS maker like the one in the links I posted a couple of pages back. I used two hunks of a 1 ounce silver coin. I cut it in half and attached each half to each lead. I hooked it up to a 9vdc adaptor for just over 8 hours I think. So I would imagian it is very high. You can see the silver in the water. The water took on a greyish color after running that long. I wouldn't even know how to test this and don't even have a way to test it to find out the PPM of it.

You could most likely get a reading from any tds pen for nutrient strength..
Also, it should really only be necessary to have silver at the anode (positive side).. Stainless steel would make a good cathode (negative electrode).. Only electrons are donated from the cathode.. Metal ions come from the cathode with a positive charge.. That is why in electrolysis the anode depletes, while the cathode gets build-up or plating..
Lastly, its not quite correct to call this colloidal silver.. Its an ionic silver solution.. Colloidal silver is a colloid of actual silver chunks suspended in it.. This silver is primarily non-ionic elemental silver.. What electrolysis of silver in distilled water produces is a solution of Ag+ ions.. Ingesting it wouldn't exactly be health beneficial, because most Ag+ would react with the acid in your stomach to precipitate as silver chloride..
Ionic silver from what I can gather is better than colloidal for feminizing.. Silver thiosulfate is a common feminizing method, and this would yield no elemental silver at all..

I read summet about feminising by soaking the seeds in asprin and water summet to do wi making the male hormone less promenant... dont know if it works but i found it using google!

Good informations. Thanks.



ontariogrower looking forward to hearing and seeing your results.

i found and tryed a method which is done by flowering for a extra week or so and male pollen stacks will get produced. as soon as the pollen stacks start to plump out (and day or two) dry you whole plant take the buds and smoke them and cut off the pollen stacks and put in a plactic bag to dry. the pollen will keep for two to three months so there is enough time to grow a second plant and then use a paint bush to pollinat the second plant (there is only enough pollen for the bottom half of the plant normaly) so smoke the rest of the bud

im still working on the gib acid it will not break down and the light stressing is in week 2
