I just discovered this thread a couple of days ago and injected a plant about 5 minutes ago. I went with the original formula. I can try some CS the next time and see how that goes.

It sounds like this is still to be determined somewhat⌠and I def havenât heard anything about dosing CS which will prob be really tough if you make it yourself since apparently people say the tds meters donât measure it well or something
just caused issues and necrotic dead spots its posted above.

Injecting in general or were you talking about injecting CS in particular?
injecting, again can read it above.

Huh?
Iâve read the whole thread, as far as I remember, I believe you injected silver nitrate and may have mentioned you might try injecting CS, but I just reread thro your posts and it DOES NOT seem like you injected CS or didnt talked about that specifically unless I missed it.
Yeah was silver nitrate had been awhile, no never injected CS though concentration rate of CS and issues we were having previously i donât think would work, spraying is easy enough.

To reverse just two lower branches I put STS in a narrow, longish glass container and just dip the branches in for a minute. No spraying, no unwanted contamination of the rest of the plant, no waste of STS. Itâs been two weeks now since I started, should soon see if it worked.

I might at some point also try to scrape and adhere a CS soaked cotton ball on a branch with seran wrap.

Or use tattoo needles to puncture the skin only instead of injecting.

I cant believe no one has tried colloidal silver solutions injectedâŚor silver thiosulfate.

Im thinking of trying. I have a plant I have been spraying regularly but to no effect. It has pistils showing and small pollen pouches at the internodes, but no real balls of pollen.
I have silver thiosulfate and colloidal silver.

Well, Iâm not gonna talk you into or out of it, but it wouldnât be a put experiment as youâve already sprayed itâŚ
I was planning on having a mother and then doing it to a clone so I wonât care too much if it doesnât work.
Iâm quite a ways out though personally.
Sorry I came in late and was wondering has anyone tried injecting sts in the plant?
HahaâŚlolâŚohh. I cant see how anything could really be better than G4. Although the prices quoted for me on the internet are about the sameâŚit just seems to me G4 would be easier since it is a plant hormone, but everyone quotes that sts/silver nitrate is the way to go. 
Imo it is a waste of silverâŚhaha.
Is the silver somehow recoverable?
Boy that took a min to read through . Good read tho . Look forward to seeing progress on the experiments .
Well⌠I attempted. I was not able to get the needle into the stalk more than a fraction of itâs length and back pressure was just impossible.
Read through some of this trying to grasp it and picked up the idea. Had a few questions if anyone would be so kind to answer them.
Will this work regardless of sex or only females?
The idea is that it flowers and grows balls and self pollinates therefor producing seeds right? Or is there a step Iâm missing here?
Not smokable after treated correct?
What are you guys using to clean your tents of the pollen so it doesnât pollinate future grows?
Thanks again to anyone who can answer any of these!

Iâm not sure what would be the point on using it on males since the males are already going to produce pollen.
I think you could have it seed itself (one branch has ball others donât sort of setup) or possibly you could try to make the whole thing have balls and pollinate others whether you collect/save the pollen for later or open pollinate, or apply to a clone for a self or whatever.
I think the treated branch is definitely not recommended to be smoked, the other branches might be ok to smoke but it would be a risk that you would have to make on your own, some people would definitely not take a chance.
Iâm not exactly sure what people use to clean pollen filled tents, but apparently pollen is rendered incapable once itâs wet⌠so maybe if you just sprayed down the whole tent after? Some people use enzyme cleaners, h202 or even bleach in general for cleaning.
