so, are you injecting 20ml or 200ml of STS in the plant?

If I read the OP correctly, its not STS that you inject but Straight Silver Nitrate. Dosage im also a bit confused on, as well as how you actually push the liquid into the stem, I have been tryin and had to go up to a 22g needle just to get it in the stem but doesnt really let me push the liquid in like you would giving a shot. I think I got SOME in but I was only aiming to inject 1ml.

I managed to do this reversal, the pollen sacs are still growing.
As I’m a bit slow, I like to simplify things, the recipe is:
100 mg silver nitrate (0.1 g) “can increase up to 200mg if needed”
10ml distilled water
Mix
Inject 0.2ml of this solution into the stem you want to reverse “you can inject up to 0.3ml”
Wait 1 week, if it doesn’t work, repeat again increasing the amount of silver nitrate.

Well I sure hope so! I am gonna keep shooting her up like she is a Junkie every 3 days and spraying her down every three days. I really really really really want more seeds from this girl for breeding she smells AMAZING already. Stem rub is Fruity and sweet. Tropicana Poison, I got two seeds from a trade on here or a gift cant remember, but i soooo want more.

A bit hard to say from that, she sure wants to flower. Keep at it and virtually everything will reverse eventually. People have injected both straight silver nitrate; which I have done a number of times, some people inject sts, and that seems to also work most of the time.

I am doing both Spraying with STS and Injecting Silver Nitrate, I REALLY want this one to reverse lol. I started spraying RIGHT when I saw the very first white pistils showing, before you could even really see the flower starting. So Fingers crossed the combo works, I have had HORRIBLE luck reversing autos, wasted 2 plants so far, im hoping this isnt the third.

I think I may have over did the injections, the plant is wilted like mad at the top of the main stalk. I am hoping it recovers and doesnt die lol. But at least i know the injection did SOMETHING. We shall see if it recovers.

Thank you for posting this. I bought Chrysal from the Pestrong site @TeddyNuggets mentioned. Took a couple weeks but got it in the fridge and will be using it on the summer grow and will post pics.

I’m suddenly very glad to have a surplus of needles and syringes due to how I have to take my meds. This is fascinating thanks so much for sharing. Give myself a shot give my plant a shot XD

- Drill a 2mm diameter in the trunk, to the phloem (not deeper), on a “node corner”.
- Impregnate a tiny patch of cotton and try to push it inside a bit to slower the cicatrization (like a bullet shot care).
- Wrap tightly the cotton with stuff (tape, kitchen “plastic”…), plant will keep it moist the necessary time. When it’s dry you can remove. It’s a bit more maintenance but you avoid the “damned tool i will not name” this way.
- Depend on lines, and specimens, but drill two patchs at the first node and the 5th. Safe way.
- Add a bit of thiosulfate, even minimalist … still … it’s not a gadget in the sts treatment. It have been formulated this way for a good reason : to balance the toxicity of the process. It real ease to find accurately the “sweet spot” doses for each case.
The bet now is to know in how many time this trick for tall sativas will be “invented” again ^^

Reminds me of….
I like the sound of your implant method, might also be easier and work better for those plants that are really woody.
