hi guys I just had a crack at making my own colloidal silver tested it and it is at 25ppm, ive read and been told that it should be at least 40ppm to use for turning females is that true or will the 25ppm be sufficient? if not anyone got any tips on how to make a stronger solution?

thanks

you could strain it and run it again. it may increase but you may be limited by your power source. 25ppm is enough to work though. I have done it with less than 20ppm. just be patient and keep using it until it changes...usually within 3 weeks

I never know what my ppm are. But, it has always worked.
! - 9 volt battery or you can hook a couple 9 volts together..Up to you.
2 - Silver Quarters... Yep, they are not 99.999999999 Fine Silver ( You Don't need Fine Silver, Sterling will work)
3/4 pint Distilled Water
Let it cook for 24 hours. Strain off the top solution and keep. Toss the crap on the bottom.
Repeat process 1 more time. Strain off top solution once again . Toss the crap on the bottom.
There you go. CS solution, That's it. Works for me every time.

Just some advice. The plant you decided to CS . Should be sent to flower and the CS process started at least 2 weeks in advance of the others. That way the pollen will be ready to use. When the others flower.

I would assume it would work and remain the same. I don't work with autos. But, don't see why it won't... Maybe someone that has worked with Auto's will chime in on this question.
Good Luck

I ran a batch a couple of days ago and discovered that if I boiled the water in the microwave and then put the jar on a candle warmer I was able to get 38 ppm in about 2 hours. There was also almost no residual "stuff" floating as there was in the batch I made overnight.
