Some fem seed making help needed - Breeder's Laboratory - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

Ok so I've made some seeds in one test run of making colloidal silver. It worked. I have been trying it a few more times with different strains and having a little less luck.
I have been able to make the female produce tons of male sacks. However they don't seem to open, and don't have any pollen when I crack them open. What am I missing here?
Ppm of my solution is around 30.

Could be they need a little more coaxing? STS will do the job on hard to reverse plants but I dont know if it will increase odds of pushing the plant into making pollen or not. Good luck on your hunt for info! NS

Just getting around to using collidial silver to make some fem seeds. My friend was telling me that you need at least 22 ppm's for it to work. I thought 22 sounded weak I thought it took 12 to 24 hours to brew up a batch of CS for plants? But saw were 30 is being rocked how long was that brewed, I use 27 volts on my CS?

I was using a ac/dc power adapter for some electronic thing I didn't have anymore. It took about 12 hrs to make. Removing my silver and cleaning them 2-3 times

How long did you let it flower and did you keep giving it cs?

**Avinash.miles** · 07-23-2013, 07:44 PM

spray multiple times?

jackel · 07-24-2013, 03:19 AM

I have sprayed it everyday, sometimes twice a day until it showed maturing male flowers. I have waited till the male flowers start to fall off. Even opening some and trying to "shake" out pollen over the females.

Seems like it's an individual that isn't prone to herming. Probably a good one to use in breeding as the children might be less likely to have unwanted herm issues. You're just gonna have to find a cs concentration that works or switch to another method, or use her as a regular mama not a pollen donor.

Keep it dry,they may drop pollen.....

Conditions can hinder the drop of pollen sometimes,
other times they are just sterile??...

and WHERE would someone get the sts to do a faster reverse?
how long does it last,i know silver dont last long stored....

Brewing up a batch right now going try to fem my NL5xHaze among many others hoping she will finish up here in the northeast got a little half ass ghetto greenhouse ready to rock if need be. I just hate having plants in a greenhouse easy target everyone is nosy. Got Purps pollen I'm going to hit them with also trying to shorten the flowering time on the NL5XHaze while keeping the medical value up she needs to get tested for her values. My friend has Grand Daddy Purps pollen also that pollinated a BlueBerry Headband Ripped Bubba of mine tiger striped seeds already gotz me pumped for more breeding. So much to do so little time thanks for the info guys.
