db003 first try at making seeds

[db003]

hello everyone its me db003 and its time to experiment.

let me start off by saying I have never done this before I just read a bunch of stuff and tried it out.

like the title says I will be attempting to make my first seeds. I had 3 clones from my latest photo plant grow and the bud came out so good that I really wanted to try and get some seeds from the clones since I planted my last seed that I had of that strain.

I bought the stuff to make colloidal silver and whipped up a batch

to make the CS I used some 18 gauge silver wire I got from eBay I bought some distilled water and 9v batteries and a new glass mason jar and connected it all with some gator clips

my first batch I used 3 9v batteries and let it run for 8 hours I started spraying the clone with the CS I made the next day. I separated the 3 clones I move the biggest two to my larger tent and keep them on 18/6.

that left me with one clone is all by it self in my 2x4 tent I kept it in veg under 18/6 for another 4 days and sprayed it 2 to 3 times a day with the CS and switched it to flower a few days ago and have been spraying it twice a day.

I used about half the batch of the CS I made. so I made another batch since I was still using the old batteries from the first batch I added a fresh new battery to the set up so 4 9v batteries in total and let the CS go over night this time.

anyway I have no idea yet if this will work just have to wait it out and see

Good luck buddy. I'll be rooting for ya!!
I didn't have a positive result with CS. Could have been any variable in making the stuff. But I've seen it work with others so as long as you CS is good a couple of applications should be enough. If it doesn't work try STS, this has worked for me and only needs two applications and I've seen it work with only one application

I'll be using Twenty20's STS on my first try in a couple weeks.

hey everyone its me db003

in this grow I am trying to make pollen from a female photo plant to make seeds with this is my first time trying something like this so I hope it works.

its been 18 days since my last post when I put this plant in flower and spraying it with homemade colloidal silver and its starting to work! I was not sure if this was going to work at first but it seams to be doing good its been the longest 18 days ever lol.

I have been spraying this thing like crazy I have been trying to at least spray it twice a day once in the morning after the lights come on and once right before the lights go out at night.

the two plants I have in veg that will be the plants I will be seeding with the pollen from this plant are staring to get nutrient deprived and getting pretty big so they will be need to be transplanted from 3 gallon pots to 7 gallon pots but I want to wait as long as I can before I do that so they dont get too big and so I have time to collect the pollen and clean out this tent.

I have had to make a fresh batch of colloidal silver every 3 to 4 days because of all the spraying I have been doing and I hope the plant is ready soon because the little skinny silver rods are just about gone from over use.

well thats about it for now tell me what you think.

Looks like you're well on the way to make some pollen!

thanks @WildBill! hey you ever get your sts you ordered? if I do what to do this again I will be trying the sts route the colloidal silver was a bit to much work.

if you start a grow journal about your sts please let me know.

U can get the supplies to make sts on ebay for roughly $20 for enough to flip a small field of plants. Sts is very reliable and has fewer applications but is more caustic.

Yeah, I got it ordered and received.
I start my next grow This coming Thursday when my portable A/C comes in.
I got a cheap Mars 2.3ft x 2.3ft tent to make seed in. First seeds will be Meph Sour Stomper.
The 4x4 will have 4 girls..... 2 Pinkys from Proph and Bruce Banner Auto and Wedding Glue Auto from Fast Buds as a breeder's test run.
Also doing two Meph Alien VS Triangle outside in EarthBoxes. Should be big girls!

If u really want to get ur breeding on the Regs is where its at!
