weights of the chems to mix 1 liter final volume. That’s actually the smallest volume you can make using a mg scale.
.05 g silver nitrate, mixed in 50 ml distilled water- part A. .39 g sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate mixed in 50 ml distilled water- part B (Note- If you use anhydrous thiosulfate, you will need to do your own math.)
Whisk A and B together quickly for about 30 seconds. Add 900 ml of distilled water to reach the final 1L volume - I use 600ml here.

@HolyAngel thanks for confirming @Ace71975 idea!
@Ace71975 I’m SERIOUSLY BAD AT MATH so I wasn’t confident to confirm your idea as correct although it felt right every-time I was reading it which is why I was primarily paraphrasing what I know works in hopes that someone better at numbers (like HolyAngel) would chime in for all of us

My sis is the academic while I’m the practical. I actually messaged her to double check but she didn’t get back to me yet. We share our strengths so I message her with stuff like this to triple check for me all the time… however my skill set means that when she needs me I’m physically heading over to her place to do what i do

@Pigeonman @HolyAngel or anyone else, have you ever had success getting any female pollen in the past to collect some for later use?

@blendmedmedman yep but on less plants than I’d had expected. This is why i’m always sacrificing a full plant to stay right next to the to be seeded plants. Usually I take the female, litterally pick it up and wipe it all over the “male” like it was toilet paper to a dirty ass.
The Hubbabubbasmelloscope reversal showed little to no pollen drop but it was there enough with the BDSM approach to make a lot of seeds

I am reversing one Whole plant to collect Pollen to fertilize a second Whole plant. Hopefully I get a decent amount of Pollen AND seeds.

For me its the same autos or photo. The timing is what changes.
Autos i spray from 1st teve leaves for 3 weeks. At the end of those 3 weeks is when i start the plants i want to pollenate.

well this auto sprouted 1/4 and was sprayed with CS until 4 days ago and its still showing female sex so I did the first spray of STS today.

So its hard for me to do the spray at lights out. Is that recommended purely because sts is phototoxic? I keep her in the shadey area and she seems perfectly fine.
