Question on Fem Pollen Production via Colloidal Silver

I'd like to know your opinion on NPKMgCaS.. profile to improve Colloidal Silver -induced female pollen production from females,

should it be the same as for sensi-flowering with low N and high PK or should it be corrected in any way for male pollen production?

Thank you.

PS
Few pix of getting K2 regular male not a ladyboy pollen.

Bump! after a week of waiting and 50 empty views

surprized to found this question to be opened.

I worry about these ladyboys to improve their pollen production.

you never get a whole lot with silver but it does vary from strain to strain what your getting looks good for silver. as for npk use a standard flower ratio. what silver are you using sts or homemade ionized silver? and what strain is that you reversed?

I've typed "CS" (colloidal silver) above and I've posted the photo of the device.

The strain is the cross (WRussian * K2) named Sugar_Kremlin
in dedication for "Rus" and "K" in parents names and the modern book by V.Sorokin wich I do appreciate so much,
if I do have the right to name it.

The seeds were accidentally washed in washing machine in jeans pocket in ziplock but remain alive.

shows its LadyBalls after CS stimulation.

Sprayed daily or twice a day, 50 ppm 9999Ag, 3V , polarity changes periodically, takes 36 hours and one filtration in the middle and one in the end.

All the flowers are stalkless and placed in a very dense clusters. They start to open in sessile position.

Flowers unlock but have no space enough to spread its petals.
Tweezers help to pull the ready ones out. Double Lens Head-wearing Type Magnifier with Lights is helpful also.



His/her dad was a regular male K2 with regular flowers. Probably there is the way to prevent this kind of rosetting. Probably Zn?

I think the myth of cs-pollen low yield is busted.

No need to improve pollen production. Flowering on customary regime from NPK 76-104-210 to NPK 0-120-223 + micro mix.

i only ask because i use both with good results. i no longer use ga3 as the results are not as good. how long did you run your charger for your ionized silver batches and what voltage and ma rating is your charger? i recently reversed j-1(jack herer*skunk#1clone) and also blue dot waiting for the balls to open now.

i have found some strains flip easy others resist.

Hi bicycle racer, this is my first attempt on feminization. I can not compare this by the strain.

CS she-male flowering differs from the regular ones with its dense clustering. I wonder if Zn will help.

I use Chinese made DC adaptor switching voltage and polarity. I did this three times on 12V, 4.5V and 3V.
Black metal silver that isn’t good appears more on 12V.
I didn’t metered the current. They say optimum is at 16mA.

From another source -
"I've done a lot of experimenting and actually prefer keeping the current much lower, around max .28 milliamps, using a 30VDC power supply. This keeps the solution crystal clear, which tells me that the end product has extremely small particles. "

They describe the electrolyses as a complete process that includes interaction between silver metal particles of various sizes and ionic Ag+.
Metal Ag particles appear in two forms – a black sediment on electrode, flakes floating in the liquid and a silver mirror film on the surface of the water.
Both forms of metal Ag are useless and harmful because of clustering Ag+ ions on their surfaces. Silver Ag+ ions stick together with metal that decreases CS activity.

From this point the stirring or bubbling the solution is causing blocking Ag+ on the metal catchers and is not useful while common sense is contradictory dictates to stir.

The less the number and size of a metal particles, the better.
Its size and number depends mainly on the current density that depends on current applied, square of electrodes and a distance between, conductivity of the liquid and others.

An electronic controller is needed to prevent and to decrease a metal particles appearance and to provide more efficient Ag+ production.
In the absence of automatic control I had to do the service manually.
Every one or two hours I turned off, read TDS, switch polarity and turn on.
When ppm rising is stuck I clean up the electrodes and coffee-filter the solution.

I use Ag9999 from a laboratory back from the last century.
The final CS-liquid has grey-brown opalescent and likes a tea.
It was 52ppm and now after 10 days of shelf life it is 45ppm.


I also have read the ammonia increases CS activity.

you seem to be making good batches and your pollen production is the best i have seen for fems with silver. i have also been told the lower the voltage and ma rating give smaller particles which can pass through cell walls. i have made fems this way but you are getting superior amounts of pollen i think the issue for me is my charger is 24v 400ma which is maybe too much. lately because of this i have been using sts and ionized silver in rotation or mixed together. i spray for about 10 days in veg every other day and 1 to 3 times once flowered. this method is working for me but i want to get the same charger your using where did you pick it up?

Not sure the kind of adaptor will play the role.

Current control device is needed to provide the best result in terms of Ag clusters size.

But is it really need to be upgrade when it works? Only in purpose to minimize Ag waste? That doesn't really matter.

Look through the link given by PhenoMenal. There was given some descriptions of a current controls.
