I started the STS treatment, yet pistils are developping. Do i have to retstart or keep spraying at a more frequent schedule now. I've already added sooo much soap so it can stick :wall:

Soap

Huh?


When did u start, how did u do the process, how often you spraying
Soap is supposed to be a surfactant allowing the sts to stick better, because i have nothing else on hand.

Shit.. a week and a half ago? Sprayed once before lights out, waited four days, sprayed again and flipped, sprayed another four days after and now here we are. Spraying again tonight at lights off. Not sure if its sticking to the bud sites properly or what. Recipe was followed properly and everything. Do you think itl work if i up frequency? Recipe said every five days is sufficient.

I've used STS for over 3 years now,never heard anyone using soap

Ya spray 10 days before flip
Then 5 days before flip
Then on flip.
Some do just 5 days before flip, I do 10
Then every 4-5 days after untill u see balls


Did u start before you flipped

Have you ever had pistils start first? Am i worrying too much? Yes i sprayed before flip.

I know it's an old thread but soap is not needed and if it's done correctly there will be no pistils at all.

Hey peeps,, I have tried making my own and using my own CS, I was successful in making CS up to 30 ppm, and even with constant spraing, it produced balls but virtually no pollen, so thinking about having a go at STS,, do you think it is a more reliable method and is it safe to use and do you really need to spray as much of it,, I did read a good while ago where somebody used a product and only sprayed once with terrific success, I'm not sure what they used would it be STS ?
Getting seeds in my country is exceptionally hard, and trying to import them is almost impossible due to the new machines they have in place and they're clever canines
Cheers all
