Where To Use Colloidal Silver

[The Kult]

I'm interested in creating a batch of feminized seeds for own use.
My question is should I use colloidal silver on regular females or on feminized females?
Would it do any difference?
What would be the best time to use it and the best time to stop applying it?
Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

The only reason I have ever seen to apply colloidal silver is when you are trying to change a female plant to a male so it can produce some seeds. It makes no sense to do this to regulars, because you would probably have males along with the females with a set of regular seeds. This gender bending is done on feminized plants, trying to get them to produce seeds even without a male anywhere around. CS is sprayed on all the new buds for around 20 days and it stresses the plant into thinking it has failed in its female role, and it tries to go the other direction.

How old should a bud be to start the spraying? Or should I say how old into the 12/12 photoperiod?
What ppm type of colloidal silver is recommended?
Thanks for your help.

I did a journal on this, but i believe that I was testing mine at 45ppm... I started spraying right before the flip, kept it going during the 10 days of change and by then they were seen to be changing gender.

Thanks for your detailed information Emilya.

if you use CS on normal or feminized females the pollen they will produce when used on another female..normal or not..will prodce feminized seeds ..ie. only females will grow.
