Making Feminized Seeds

[gorillamotorss]

I know that using colloidal silver on a FEMIZED female will produce pollen sacs that when used to pollinate that female will produce about 99+ feminized seeds. If I use colloidal silver on a REGULAR seed female to make pollen sacs to use on that regular seed female will that also produce FEMINIZED seeds from that REGULAR seed female plant?

 

[CanadianJim]

Yes. That is how they got feminized seeds in the first place. In fact that's still how they get a lot of feminized seeds now.

 

[gorillamotorss]

That is what I thought. Are there any strains that cannot be feminized?

 

[CanadianJim]

Not as far as I know. If you're having problems with colloidal silver, there is another chemical used, silver thiosulfate. There are instructions on how to make it. It's a bit finicky but from what I've heard it works better than cs.

I have both silver thiosulfate and colloidal silver. I was just wondering just in case I had any difficulties later on.

Is there a preferred ppm of colloidal silver solution that is to be used when making feminized seeds? Most I see on amazon is 10 ppm.

from what I’ve read, you wanna shoot for between 30-50ppm

30-50 ppm is also what I have read. Anything less than that is a hit or miss situation.

I just started spraying 1 @ 45ppm. So we will see soon enough.

Where did you end up buying your solution, I’m having a hard time finding something besides on Amazon.

I didn’t buy it, fairly simple to make

Ah. Was thinking about that. How long did you let it cook for? Would a ppm meter Give accurate results?

 

[Canadadoes]

I’d have to check my journal, I wanna say it was under 2 hours.
In my signatures a tutorial. I did mine a little differently but essentially the same process.

I have haven't tried reversing a female but I want to. Here is a thread I saved as it seems a good one to reference, hope it helps. How to Make Feminized Seeds With Colloidal Silver - Sponsored by Intelligent-Gro LED

Yes. I, too, have succeeded using homemade silver thiosulfate. Earlier I failed when using gibberellic acid, same with colloidal silver.

Hi Jim, I'm new here. Can you tell me how you got your bio info, in small print at the end of your post. I'm a Ph.D organic chemist, Stanford, 1964.
