just wondering if anybody has any info or results from using tiresias mist. I just cut a plant that i used this product on and so far everything happened just as the label said.I sprayed a couple of limbs as directed and they produced male flowers and pollinated the rest of the plant and another one as well. my question is has anybody planted any seeds made with this method and if so what were your results as far as ,were they all females and were there any problems with herms? also does anybody have any opinion on using this product on plants that came from feminized seeds. I used it on a northern lights female from regular seed but was wondering about using it on a blue dream female that comes from feminized seed. many thanks

No but I'm going with STS Cheshire BAT brand much cheaper, LOL. Seriously you really shouldn't see anything different reversing femmed or reversing regs. Hermis are a potential with cannabis, any cannabis!
thanks for the quick reply.i wanted to try STS but have had trouble finding it.I do mostly guerrilla style grows so female seed is a huge plus for me.
do you have a link to find the STS?

Look up photography suppliers (above), pool supplies and online for reagents. But hang on I'll ask a friend of mine to swing by and see if he can give you some specifics for the one's he made for me.

I used 0.1g AgNO3 and 0.5g Na2S2O3 in 1L dH2O iirc. Mightve been more dilute though. Extra won't hurt. I know I ended up using a more concentated solution than Clarke suggests and sprayed more frequently. I have a friend who uses it for breeding feminized autos and does twice daily sprayings to ensure a rapid FtM transition.

There are complete instructions here. I mixed these solutions to my own superior Cheshire Bat specs, and I am keen to know what the results will be when it is used. Sadly my own test program is on hiatus as I am growing a large male.

I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure they stole kite high/lumi's post. He had that exact post somewhere here at RIU. Thanks for the link though it will help a lot

I don't know if you've heard this yet, but sadly, Kite High passed away over the summer. I personally didn't know the man, and to be honest I had never even spoken with him before. I actually just stumbled across a thread a couple of weeks ago that was dedicated to him and explaining the circumstances of his death. I just happened to read your comment in my timeline Dboi, and I thought that I had better inform you in case you were friends with the man.

Man, I very much enjoyed Lumi's posts... Seeing people talk about him it sounds like there was MUCH more to the guy than good posts.. sad. I never got to know him on a personal level.. sounds like I missed out.
Look on the bright side... we all got interact with the man while he was here.

I don't know if he was the OP on that, it's been around. Doesn't much matter as the info comes from Clarke originally.
I followed those instructions and found that increasing teh concentration (I think a 4:1 or 5:1 dilution of the concentrate would work better) and doing daily sprayings were required. But that was just on a single plant who is apparently somewhat hard to reverse.

He was a really great guy. I miss him a lot.

Would something like http://www.amazon.com/Elixir-Gold-Ultra-Colloidal-240-ppm/dp/B003LW740S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1385511923&sr=8-1&keywords=240+ppm be acceptable to use?

No. It needs to be silver. That's gold. Other than being valuable and metallic they really don't have very much in common. Silver works by displacing copper at the ethylene binding site that triggers the production of female flowers in cannabis. Without this it makes male flowers. This is why fems produced with silver are no more likely to herm than reg seeds with either of the mothers.

AHHH! I'm sorry! I had used the wrong link and didn't notice it. (I blame RIU's favorite flower.) My apologies.
What I had meant to link was a 240 PPM bottle of Colloidal SILVER. http://www.amazon.com/Colloidal-Silver-Ultra-240-ppm/dp/B0036RM6E2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1385735770&sr=8-1&keywords=240+ppm+colloidal+silver Like this one. Would 240 PPM be enough, too much, or insufficient?
