So just wondered if have this right if I have seeds like black tee tangie from brothers grim. These are not considered f1 seeds but a polyhybrid. Meaning seeds from them will have a huge genetic diversity already? Would you consider making seeds from them or just enjoy growing them and keeping the females culling the males. To make seeds should I consider ibl lines, heirloom, or landrace to get similar results from seeds I make?

So I wondered is making feminized seeds even possible outdoors in zone 5b? I mean the timeline you need your reversed plant to drop pollen late August to pollinate by September 1st just to beat frost date of October 15th. Thats when normal plants drop pollen yet a reversed plant is delayed to drop pollen. So isn’t this not even possible as would only get pollen mid September or later to pollinate and frost will kill seeds before can mature!

So I was wondering when you mix the .5 grams silver nitrate with 500ml distilled water and the 3.9 grams sodium thiosulfate with 500 ml distilled water to make stock solutions a and b how long do those solutions last? Will they last 3 plus years if stored away from heat and light? How long does sts last when the stock solutions are mixed?

So if buying bullion silver rounds and bars I can always expect to pay a premium but when I sell I heard just to expect to get spot prices if lucky. Is that a fair assumption if collect something like maple rounds or generic rounds or bars? Seems like in most cases it’s hard to make any money unless plan to hold very long term!

So I bought 4 culled silver American eagles for 280 bucks. Not the best deal but heard not a complete rip off. Wondered how you do this you just buy a little every year? Is it just me or the price kinda high right now?

So wondered how to dilute the Silver mountains colloidal silver for use of reversing a plant. On Amazon a reviewer states “ diluted this down to 30-40 ppm with ECM meter”. Do they mean they used the meter in ecm mode in us/cm for conductivity? As if use in the tds setting a 30-40 ppm reading would likely be to high a colloidal silver to use as they say roughly double the tds ppm reading is the ppm colloidal silver.

So I live in zone 5b and wondered if starting seeds after Memorial Day for a photoperiod is what people do outdoors?

So the directions say to wait for a plant to be five inches tall and at least 2 weeks old. Then to spray a branch starting 5 days before and for 14-21 days spray the branch. When I put a plant in flower only five inches tall and use the reversed branch to self the plant how many feminized seeds would this make? Also could I start a seed outdoors later for a seed run like July 4th outdoors and do this method? How are people making feminized seeds outdoors?

I wondered if it is possible to reverse a plant and self a regular photoperiod outdoors. I asked chat gpt and came up with a schedule of spraying colloidal silver or sts August 7-8. Then pollen dropping late August to early September and pollinating early September to get mature seeds by early to mid October. Is this possible to do as another AI says it would not be possible due to reversal and pollen dropping mid September pushing seed maturation to late October early November which in 5b frost would have set in killing the plant and seeds before can mature outdoors. So is this possible to pull off outdoors?

So if growing regular photoperiods when can I expect to pollinate the female plants to make seeds. I live in grow zone 5b and wondered Is September 1-7 when I should be using pollen to pollinate my females outdoors or would I be able to do this earlier. Guess just when pollen would drop if have male plants and when ideal time to pollinate outdoors to get mature seeds before frost?

So I wondered does the design on my first silver bar matter? I looking to start to buy yet looking at 1 oz or 10oz bars. Anyone recommend a design seems like the Indian buffalo bars are a well recognized bars. What about the ampex bars I would assume some bars are safer and easier to get money back when holding them? Any advice is appreciated…

So if wanted to make seeds outdoors is it even possible for a photoperiod in zone 5b? I never thought about it but seeds need 4-6 weeks to mature. And hearing that this puts the time for mature seeds late October early November well past the mid October outdoor frost date. So is it possible to preserve a strain by growing outdoors and get some mature seeds?

Just thought would share I had success reversing a plant with colloidal silver and getting seeds. I used a 17 us/cm on a tds meter and even switched to an 11 us/cm solution a few days after spraying and was effective after spraying 21 days. Seems like as long as got a pale yellow gold color solution and shows a laser pointer beam it is effective in my experience so far. I asked AI and they say there is someone on Reddit that reported a store bought Sovereign Silver
at 10 ppm (9-11us/cm) was effective spraying twice a day. Anyone else experiment with this and what store bought stuff has worked for you. Hear a lot of people say a lot of brands you buy weren’t effective or what ppm you make your solution at for reversing?

So without having any indoor lights looks like planting a photoperiod seed outdoors may 20th is what is recommended in growing zone 5b. Just out of curiosity how much yield can I expect from a plant started outdoors? Hear it’s more recommended to have indoor lights and start like April 1st indoors then plant outdoors may 20th yet how much yield looking at just starting Outdoor May 20th?
