hi guys,im wanting to make some fem auto seeds,id like to know if this is correct,i put my fem auto ak47 in,then about 2 weeks later start my other fem seeds,and also start to spray my ak47 with cs,then can i just let time and my fan take care of the rest?,will 1 ak47 make enough pollen to pollinate half a dozen plants,or should i spray and use 2 ak's,i have 2 but would like to make some fem's of these as well as the other ones,also im concerned about pollen getting into my other plants downstairs,will a pair of stockings placed over the exhaust hole act as a pollen filter?,any advice would be great ,thanks

There's more to it than that...CS is just one of the ingredients that you mix together and spray on the plant. You've pretty much got the timing idea down, just figure it's going to take a couple of weeks for the reverted-sex female to start growing balls and another week or two to start throwing pollen. I think you're supposded to aim for about 5 weeks ahead of the ones you want to pollinate (which should be about 2-3 weeks in when they get dusted). And don't smoke any of the plants involved in this process, they say to at least wait until the next generation of F1s to use the smoke and preferably the F2 generation.

There's a keyword you can google that'll return result that describes the entire process in detail and even provides a place to buy the materials online from a camera supply joint. It's something like 'xxxelitexxx', but that's not it.

Maybe someone else can remember...?

Colloidal silver has also been used in horticulture as an ethylene inhibitor, by competing for binding sites on the ethylene receptors of plants. Because of this fact, solutions that contain silver particles are used by florists to keep flowers fresher longer. Ethylene is the chemical known for “sexing” plants, so by blocking synthesis, colloidal silver can be used for forcing male onto female plants. Colloidal silver has also been used extensively in cannabis (marijuana) cultivation as well.
