Hey @Tappy, I was wondering how the coll.silver worked out. I think I’d like to learn this method.
Is there a grow FAQs on this r you can give me the rundown on it. I would appreciate it
Thank you
P.s… any input you could give me @Grease_Monkey would be be greatly appreciated to

I gave a halfassed rundown in my apocalypse project thread… but basically connect your 3 9v batteries together (think triangle). This gives you around 27 volts. Then connect a lead from the remaining two posts and attach your silver to each lead. You can technically use a piece of metal on the negative side (I’ve used a cotter pin) but it makes your silver nasty and definetly unsafe for human consumption. Best bet is to use 2 chunks of silver. I bought a rectangle 1oz piece of silver for 34$ canadian and cut it in half. You may want to clean off the negative side once n a while cause it collects black junk
Get it all set up and leave it be. You’ll start seeing some action around the silver as silver becomes suspended in the water. I usually leave it until it’s got a gnarly brown color and makes u gag if you taste a drop. DO NOT worry about PPM. It is a nothing calculation when it comes to colloidal silver and you will not get real results with any home ppm meter. I keep meaning to experiment with my volt meter and see if I can dial it in using resistance (high resistance with basic water, lower resistance the more silver is in the water)
When you need more you can speed up the process by adding in your older CS.

Ok ok @Grease_Monkey , here’s the silver I have. And what are your opinions on a car batt. trickle charger. Puts out 18 v.
How much water to make
How often do I spray
Spray untill the formation of balls!
I have 2 packs

I’ve never tried sterling silver… it should work. As far as I know lower voltage just takes longer. I spray once or twice a day till I see the start of balls

Thank u sir. I’mma gonna try the trickle, and I guess test before the run to make sure Sterling works

Holy fuck…super sorry about not being around. I think sunday or monday was the last time I posted anything. This is the earliest I’ve been off all week…having Monday off threw the whole company into a tailspin…mandatory overtime and fuck. 14+ hours a day…cant wait to see my pay cheque, but ffs.
Anyway, here we go…
3 revegged afghani clones getting nice and bushy
.
Purple kush bagseed (was killer weed) with all my femmed pollen mashed into it…lol
Pk x strawberry Eclair fem seeds
Pk x cookies kush fem seeds
Pk x pineapple chunk fem seeds
All from one plant
.
2 remaining afghanis (pollenated with blue lights) are getting the chop today. Seeds are ready to start falling out all over.
.
Also coming down today is the gods Afghani
A touch early, but I need the space.
.
8 ufs18 and the last gorilla zkittles (biggest one)…GZ is female!!! Super glad too…the other turned male
.
SOLO CUP CHALLENGE…RAAAAAH.
.lol…calm down.
Critical Mass CBD
.
Bakers delight clone, topped for 6 mains. Looks pretty good.
.
Dutch treat on the right and critical super silver haze on the left.
.
These last 5 were labelled, but the tags and markers got pulled under the soil after a vicious flushing…the only way to find out which is which is to harvest and find the tags somewhere in the soil/rootball.
Lowdak, DLA8, black domina x jungle spice…its gonna be like Christmas come harvest…I’ll see the gifts but wont know what they are till I find the tags!
.
Group shot…
.
Here are some shots of the Afghani x blue lights (the sectioned buds at top of bin) and blue lights x Afghani ( long stalked buds in the middle)…looks pretty seeded, but I mat have pollenated too early.
.
I colloidal slivered a lower branch on my gods Afghani…so more femmed pollen…might be a small cluster, but it’ll give me some femmed seeds. Gonna chop it and let it dry…a couple flakes of pollen is all I need
.
And the freakshow, some sad clones from random bottoms of fems and purple kush autos that are seeded with big yield auto.
Big yield auto bud still curing
.
One of my ufs#18 buds…
Three of my ufs#18 buds
.
Well, that was a lot of typing, pictures and fuxking around.
I’m heading to bed…early morning and late night at work tomorrow…ugh

Keep in mind this flow space is only using 2’ x 3’ …lol

So, I’ve been using the same soil for about 4 rounds now. I see no degradation of yield or anything…what I thought was a deficiency seems to be gone. I’ve been adding my nightcrawler castings into my new line and I can see improvements. If I can give anyone a tip, it would be this, USE SILICA!!! Leaves and stems show the proof…a lanky, gnarly seedling can stiffen up rather fast, even with a low dose of silica.

I once did a turkey tray with 50+ clones with 100% success.
This method usually hits 99.5% survival rate.

It’s super forgiving too…if you think you’ll be away for a while…add some vermiculite for water retention. I can guarantee 99% survival

Ahhh you know how it is my dude I’m strain hunting right now I’m on a mission. A name your price. Medical Seeds Hammerhead. I hear there in Spain. Ahhhem spaniards…sorry Tap.
I just put new big SILS in…bad idea lol. I’m dropping plants straight into 1212 I’m not playing I’m running quick down in a real perpetual. Got shells in jungle clips ready by the window so to speak lol. Rock on. They’re sick not you. Grow more…
