Reversing with CS... Is it taking?

I got premade Colloidal Silver from some dude who makes it at his house. He said it was between 100-150ppm. I diluted it 50% and sprayed 7 days before flipping to 12/12. I continuted spraying another 7-10 days.

Then I made my own CS solution (~100ppm) and continued to spray that in flower. It's now somewhere between days 14-23. With daily (twice a day, sometimes three times) where I spray the plant thoroughly.

I don't see any balls. Pistils have shrivelled and gone brown.

Is it taking? Should I do something different? just continue spraying?

Also if it is working, how long can expect before being able to get some pollen?

If they started growing pistils then it didn't take. It could possibly start putting out balls but I doubt you're going to have any success getting viable pollen at this stage. I would switch to using an STS solution as it's much more reliable and only requires a couple of sprays.

Also remember that the solution breaks down with light exposure and it doesn't last forever on the shelf even in a brown glass bottle. I think about a month is all it's good for once mixed.

I use STS for a reason.

STS is the way. Just mix what you need when you need it and spray.

I've been using a CS I've made myself after about 7 days of flower. I followed the CS threat pinned here.

Maybe I'll have to try STS then. Can I still use it this late into the game, or will it have to be next time? (nvm, should be done before 12/12 right?)

...Guess I will scrap this project then. Start over.

Yes start over. You can be successful with both CS and STS. But STS is more reliable and less hassle in my opinion. A small bottle of silver nitrate and sodium thiosulfate costs less than $50.

Good luck
