*strictly curiousity post* disclaimer I HAVE NO INTENTION OF SMOKING CS SPRAYED BUDS.

that being said...lol does anyone know the actual dangers of smoking bud that has been sprayed with colloidal silver? This is one of those things that, no matter where you look you get the same generic “it’s bad don’t do it” over and over again without anyone actually explaining why. I’m genuinely curious to the adverse affects of doing so because technically it is a supplement used for ingesting. Does it have something to do with burning it? And would turning the buds into extract/edibles have a usable outcome? Again, I have no problem trashing a plant that has been sprayed and in fact I already did today. I’m just looking for a little extra knowledge on the subject lol please discuss

If your spraying a plant with CS its to reverse it then its going to produce male flowers with female pollen which you harvest to pollinate a female to create feminised seeds.
You would do this before the onset of flowers and wouldn't have buds to smoke, least I never had.

Unless im missing something.

I only ever dabble in this sort of thing so if im wrong someone feel free to holla.

Danger would be that an adverse reaction to silver could happen. The human body can't use silver, but it can store it indefinitely in some cases. That can lead to heavy metal poisoning.

If you just wanted a risk assessment on secondary consumption of colloidal silver.

Colloidal Silver - To Take Nature’s Antibiotic or Not?​
Colloidal Silver is a colloid consisting of silver particles suspended in liquid. Formulations containing silver salts were used by physicians in the early 20th century, but their use was largely discontinued in the 1940s following the development of safer and more effective modern antibiotics. Since the 1990s, colloidal silver has again been marketed as an alternative medicine, often with extensive "cure-all" claims. The concentration of such products is 50- 300 ppm. Colloidal silver products remain available in many countries as dietary supplements, and homeopathic remedies, although they are not effective in treating any known condition and carry the risk of both permanent cosmetic side effects such as argyria and more serious ones such as allergic reactions, and interactions with prescription medications.

Argyria is a blue-gray discoloration of the skin, eyes, internal organs, nails and gums. This develops with chronic dosing only. While argyria doesn't pose a serious problem, it can be a cosmetic concern because it doesn't go away when you stop taking silver products.

Chronic large doses of colloidal silver can cause irreversible serious health problems, including kidney damage, and neurological disease (seizures). Colloidal silver products may also interact with medications, including penicillamine (Cuprimine, Depen), quinolone antibiotics, tetracycline and thyroxine (Levothroid, Levoxyl, Synthroid) medications.

Spend all day working in a factory with welders and vaporized metal, worry about a light misting of a plant 4 months before your smoke it.
I know that life well. Work in a fab shop that makes custom earthmoving equipment.

One of my co-workers smokes all day, breathes in 7018/8018 flux smoke all day with no respirator and then dips out the second I vape within 20m of him.
