Was looking forward to seeing u make the cs. Been trying for the last past week & have only gotten up to 20ppm after about 24hr using the 3 9v battery method.

Would really appreciate any tips u can give me for making a higher grade CS.

I'm trying what I have made anyway because keep hearing a tds meter doesn't give an accurate reading in regards to CS...been only spraying since Christmas so time will tell. Meanwhile I just continue to gather info.

Ya sorry about the making of the CS part. That’s kinda important. I realized I left that part out a couple days ago. Pics were taken of the process and will add them with an explanation sometime today.

Not sure about the accuracy of the meter with CS. I just know when my TDS meter reads ~40ppm I stop and it’s ready.

I’m still going to show how I made the CS. I only found a few pics and will need to recreate the rest which isn’t a problem at all.

In the meantime -

Here are the dusted plants. Pollen plant is front left.

I pulled a couple out. These aren’t the same plants but just showing a topped one compared to an untouched one in case someone out there doesn’t know what that is. These have been dusted once already. I’ll do it again in a few weeks when more white hairs appear.

And here is the misted SS x PG.

Are you cleaning off the silver regularly? What temp do you keep the liquid at?

I double-boiler mine as I'm making it; fill 1 quart mason jar with distilled water inside of a water-filled crock pot. After about five hours I get up to 40ppm.

I clean the silver every 25 minutes, and each time I lightly stir the mixture with a sterilized spoon.

I took a quick glance at your older thread and intend to go back and read through it... I just bought some Tmist.... I have 2 questions. Do you know if this is a colloidal silver product or STS? The other question is when did you start spraying your branches with the Tmist? I was planning on starting to spray once per day at the middle of week 4.

PPM pens can't read CS properly and it takes some million dollar machine to do it accurately so most of what you buy marked Xppm is just BS.

I've been making my own CS for 5 years now. Never used it to resex plants but got rid of bad tooth infection, toenail fungi etc etc and the wife uses it a lot on her chickens.

Finally got hold of the LM334Z current limiting transistor I needed to make a circuit up to control the power rate as the CS gets stronger to make nothing but nano-sized particles. At the PO now but when it's -35C out there they can wait 'til Fri when we need to shop anyway.

Nice to see that the CS worked for you. I'll be doing some girls soon with STS now that I finally have the chem for that.

Here's the circuit if anyone wants to make one of their own.

1. I don’t know if TMist is CS. They both create pollen on a female plant the same. So I would say they are the same.
2. Start misting at 6”-8”.
3. Spray at least a couple times a day.

Now if you are misting just one fem auto plant, mist a lower branch and dust all the other bud’s pistils. Don’t mist the whole plant. These would be S1 seeds.

Doing two plants - do the same as one plant but now take that pollen and dust another plants bud’s. These would be F1 Seeds.

These are two group of F1 seeds I’m looking forward to popping:

bkrf1.xxl and bkrf4.xxl - the others are bonuses. When these seeds are ready, I’ll plant 5 of each and see what happens.

I will then make a decision on one of the above and make a shit ton of seeds AND BE DONE WITH POLLEN.

Yes this was my plan to make some s1's and maybe some f1's.... And then go from there ... I wish there was a better way to know which plant with be the "keeper pheno" like if you plant 10 seeds and you want to self the best plant... There is no real way of knowing which one will be the best...

But what you could do is start 1 plant and mist it.

Also start your 10 others. Take the pollen from the first plant and dust it on a bud from each plant. Now when they mature, pick your plant, there are your seeds. Go from there.

Here is what all the lil seeded buggers currently look like. 4" pots.

A. Misted SS x PG B. skywalker C. bkrf1 D. akr E. alien vs triangle

And here is the seeded bkrf4. This girl is out in the "other" room maturing. I'm pretty excited to see what this transforms in to.

This rare seed would not be here today if it wasn't for a guy and his idea several years ago to cross an auto fem Afghan Kush Ryder x an auto fem Berry Ryder to produce the (BKR). Original mom and mom (lol) "did it" in a small cabinet under what I remember had either 2 or 4 regular CFLs across the top.

Most recently, the auto fem BKR f4 was crossed with the auto fem Sour Stomper x Purple Gorilla.

This seed is the work of hide and seek. Blood, sweat, and tears. Power outages. Pollen screw ups. Close calls. Trials and errors. Lot's of bulbs, nutes, grow bags, and dirt. Back, shoulder, and neck pain. Summers and winters. Good days and bad days.

Was it worth it. Fuck ya it was. What's it worth? To me priceless.

I'm proud to announce the first -

bkrf4.xxl fem auto seed. The plant isn't done yet. I just had to see what was going on in there and plopped this out lol. The seeds are looking good so far.

So today I decided to stop watering all the small seeded plants. I’ll let them dry for a few weeks and pop out the seeds.

The large seeded BKRf4 is out in the room. Forgot to take a pic.

Funny ... I just cut a sour stomper x purp gorilla from a dried pot ( 1 gallon ) ... hmmmmm .
Sweet spicy smell pungent ( maybe my description is off .. lol ) .

Have another running a squat structure ( kind of like that ) that will go a couple more weeks.
