How to make Colloidal Silver to make Feminized seeds

G'day

Know this has been quiet for a bit, but can you make fem pollin and then pollinate another strain to make cross fem seeds?

Cheers

is there something you can give/do to a male to induce hermi?

Not that I've seen. A mature plant (one that has reviled it's sex) is going to stay male or if its a female can go hermie.

Dutch Master's Reverse is sold as a way to make a hermie back to female (within a tight parameter range. Check Panhead's thread on it; kind a disappointing)

A male is a male is a male. (save the pollen for seeding a strong female (strong as in doesn't go hermie after a series of light poisoning)

Does anyone have documented results of a male going hermie or even female?

ur way off gangagodess ive continually made and grown feminezed seeds and never had a problem with a hermie (meaning never had a hermie) if i did i would kill it.

any way the best way to make fem seeds is light poisoning, then storing the pollen to brush on selected buds.

and its not male pollen its female cuz there is no y chromo

Quick Q, the pollen saved, it it used on the same plant? (even if from same mother)

Some plants don't go hermie from light poisoning. (best choice to pollinate; strong female)

u can use the pollen on any female u want, esp its own line, then u get pure genetics from the doner plant and the produce should be an exact copy

im currently making some ionized silver hopefully i will make some good og kush fem crosses.

i used a battery charger as you said but mine says 8.4volt dc 250ma hope this is adequate it definetly is working as the silver im using turns black quickly and the distilled water is changing color. my 1 worry is that the silver used was only 95% pure will it still work? im going to pick up 2 half ounce pure silver coins soon for $18 dollars but cant until i get paid.

My question for making female seeds is; at what stage into flowering do you spray the solution (which week of flowering would be best) on the female plants and how females will it take to be sucessfull? After spraying a female plant with silver, is it still possible to seed the plant after collectiong female pollen?

you should spray a week or two before flowering for a few days is what i have read. i began spraying 2 weeks in flower so well see if it works. you can self a plant after taking pollen but its easier to have a clone in veg of the same strain or other and then pollinate it when you put it in flower as opposed to pollinating the plant already late in flower as seeds take 3 to 6 weeks to mature.

i used us mint quarter ounce certified .999 pure silver coins. two of them cost about $9 or two half ounce coins for $18.

What coins are used since US coins are not silver what do you use for coins in this process?

1964 was the last year that coins issued for circulation were pure silver. Drop a modern coin and a pre 65 coin and the sound they make is quite different. hope this helps

I don't have time to explain things right now, but http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_standard_electrode_potentials contains data that explains the problem.. Here are some samples that might make it pop out (since obviously oxide formation etc is undesirable) if you don't know the chemistry regarding the benefit of low voltage cells..
Ag+ + e− ⇄ Ag(s) +0.7996V (desired reaction)
AgO(s) + 2 H+ + e− ⇄ Ag+ + H2O +1.77V
Ag2O3(s) + 6 H+ + 4 e− ⇄ 2 Ag+ + 3 H2O +1.67V
O2(g) + 4 H+ + 4 e− ⇄ 2 H2O +1.23V

Its a catch 22 against current production..

cool thanks i will take a look at that link. there is quite a bit of confusing info regarding the right amount of electricity to use when making solutions currently i am using a 24v dc 400ma charger as the lower voltage chargers have died. i guess the lower the voltage the smaller the particles that are produced from what i understand. so the 24v is probably not the best choice. i read that the ma rating is important to im not sure what that means exactly but im learning more as i go along.:peace:
