Having a problem finding info on silver thiosulfate on autoflower for feminized seed production. As of lately my colloidal silver isn’t creating male flowers on my newer strains I am trying to grow in an ebb and flow coco coir setup .STS seems to be my next step. How often do you spray an autoflower ? Photo period plants you apparently spray once a week. If anyone has another alternative I am all ears. I am also going to try tiresias mist. My ph is between 5.7 and 6.2. Thank you for your consideration .

I find it easier doing a two cup method …..

2 solo cups
2 autos same strain
CS or STS


Grow both under “ 12/12 “ ( don’t overthink this light cycle for autos ) It is for this project.
Pick one to be “ pollen maker “ , the other will be the “ seed momma “.

Treat the first cup at nodes , twice daily. Eventually “ female pollen sacks will grow “
Around same time the other should move to preflower because of even SHORTER light cycle .

Once you pollinate the “ seeding cup “ you can toss the first cup.
The pollinated fem will seed out …. Grow it for about 6 weeks or when seed pods look to split .
Harvest plant over screen ….. collect seeds.
These will be FEM SEEDS.

Even though on photo period plants they say spray just once a week With STS as opposed to spraying twice a day with CS. The STS won’t damage the autoflower with that much application?. I’ve used CS for 7 years with great success until recently.
