What gauge wire is needed?

Here is a post from the last time I made it. I would go with the 12 guage as it does tend to erode away over time.

I see a lot of videos with guys using three 9v batteries. Does that work? How long does it need to “cook”?

Yes that will work, and a few hours should do it, doesn’t take too long.

Is there a way to test it to know if its strong enough? Tds? Ppm?
Yes, just use your TDS Meter. Be safe/be well.
Sorry to ask so many questions but what range am I looking for?

For me, I shoot for a minimum of 50. Some have their own preferences. You DON’T want it weaker, in my opinion. Be safe/be well.

Use an old cell phone charger… the silver wires are a hustle…if you have a gold and silver buyer, you can buy a 1 ounce bullion of silver for about $20…just cut it in half and use some small alligator clips. I let mine go overnight…water got kind of dark, but you can see the silver tinge sticking to the glass wall of my jar…not sure of the ppm, but I tasted a drop and it’s got that metallic “twang”

Cell phone charger for silver?
PERFECT for making your own, replaces the need for the batteries. Be safe/be well.

Suggestions for cheap silver
Buy an oz from a silver/gold guy. Mine was like 30 bucks and will last forever
From what I’ve read a TDS meter does not give good readings on CS.
I’ve no experience myself but I would use a laser pointer and stop as soon as i see a reflection beam showing up in the solution.
I’ve seen 100 ppm for CS and 10ppm (AgNO3) for STS being used. And even at that point there was a warning that it might burn your plants.

Shortly I am going to be starting this experiment back up again, this time I will be using injections of both Silver Nitrate AND Cobalt Hexachloride on different plants as the ethylene inhibitors and will conduct the experiments in a much more controlled manner.

I used this guide to make CS generator.

I have not used any solder its all done using alligator clips. I found the speaker terminal awesome for holding the silver wire.
Hope some else get value from it.

How’s your experimenting going?
What I really wanted to see or hear about is if someone ever tried to inject the CS. Unless I missed it, I don’t believe I saw anyone attempt it on this thread, I think @Mr.Sparkle was considering it but never heard anything more.
