Instructions on how to create feminized seeds with your cannabis plants.
Full list of products you will need and step by step instructions tips and tricks for this project below.
Step 1: gather all products to complete the project, If you click on each product you will be directed to the store.
You will need:
1: A spray bottle.
2: Colloidal Silver Concentrate 240PPM. (S.T.S)
3: A gallon of Distilled water.
4: A PPM / TDS meter.
5: A mixing bowl.
6: A small clean funnel.
7: Nitrile Gloves. (P.P.E. IS IMPORTANT) we do not need you turning blue.
Step 2: Fill the spray bottle 3/4 of the way with distilled water and dump it in the mixing bowl.
Step 3: Get your Nitrile gloves on, Grab your Silver Mtn Minerals Colloidal Silver and pour a small amount into the mixing bowl and mix thoroughly.
Step 4: Grab your PPM/TDS meter, turn the meter on, select PPM and place into the bowl at the manufactured dept on the gage, check the PPM's and repeat the prosses until the it is reading 60 PPM.
Step 5: Use the funnel to pour the mixture into the spray bottle trying not to over fill the spray bottle, if there is any extra you can pour the leftovers into the gallon bottle for later use.
How & when to apply to your cannabis plant
How to apply
This procedure is for use on female plants. make sure you are using plants or clones that are already determent to be females.
Step 1: With gloves on (P.P.E.) take the selected plant you would like to use to create your feminized pollen with and separate it from all of your other plants and place it in a space that you aren't worried about the overspray of the mix hitting the floor or walls, the mix can turn things a blueish purple.
Step 2: Spray the whole plant! Take your spray bottle starting from the bottom of the plants stalk, start to spray the plant covering every possible surface of the plant with the Colloidal Silver spray until you reach the top of the plant drenching it with the mix,
Step 3: Let the plant dry fully before returning it back to the population.
When to apply
The 1st spray of the plant should be 7 to 10 days before you put the plant into flower, if the plant is outside, here in the north east U.S. I start spraying the plant July 19th second to last week in July because the sun and weather degrades products on the plants much faster and they start to show sex in the beginning of August, if indoors 7 to 10 days will be sufficient.
The second spray will be the same day you flip the plants to 12/12, that's A 12 on and 12 off light cycle, then spray every 3 days until you see the pollan sacs start to open, (NOTE) water will kill the pollen so do not spray them passed this point it usually takes about 21 to 25 days for this prosses to take place and start to create its Feminized pollen.
Day 1: Spray 7 to 10 Days before Flip to 12/12 Light cycle.
Day 7: Spray the day that you flip the plants to the 12/12 light cycle.
Day 10: Spray.
Day 13. Spray.
Day 16. Spray
Day 19 Spray. Should see signs of pollen sacks.
Day 22 Spray. Unless there are signs of opening pollen sacks.
Day 25 Spray . Unless there are signs of opening pollen sacks.
Collect your Fem pollen and disperse it onto the pistils of the females you want to pollinate .
Pollinating your select females.
There are many ways to collect the pollen and place it on the plants you would like to pollenate, if you have a designated space like a Grow room or tent you are using you can just leave the plant in the center of all of the plants you would like to pollenate and have a fan blow the pollen around the room or tent and than when the plant is spent you can cut off the branches of the pollen doner and smack it on the plants you would like to pollenate,.
If you are outside it can be a little more tedious and difficult because of the open space you can loose a lot of pollen to the open air elements so gathering the pollen and dispersing it on to the female plants can be a task, I like to use parchment paper and small fan paint brush to collect the pollen before it falls from the pollen sacks and brushing it onto the Female plants pistils to complete the transfer. (NOTE) if you are doing this outside you could possibly seed out your neighbors cannabis crops POSSIBLY PISSING THEM THE HELL OFF. please be courteous to your cannabis friendly neighbors, thank you. Other peoples crops could be the medicine that they need, so please be kind when taking on projects like this.
After all of this hard work and dedication, i know, its a waiting game, you have questions, What's going to happen with my plants! Well sometimes you can have plants that wont take the S.T.S. mix and nothing happens with the plant, they are stubborn as fuck and isn't doing shit other times you have plants that love the stuff its amazing collecting all of the pollen and sprinkling it on all of the pistils dreaming of all the different plants you can grow and share with your friends! but also some times the pollen is sterile and doesn't pollinate the receiving plants. Its all in the plants, and if you don't know the plants capabilities you are working with it could be a lot of work just to have no outcome, its best practice to work with plants you know and that you have worked with before.
That being said, this is an exciting science experiment, Its quite fun to play, Its a great tool in your cannabis tool box, And if you are interested in making feminized cannabis seeds this is a proven way to create your own cannabis strains that will be nothing like you can get any where because its a strain of your own!

A Huge Shout Out
Thank you to those who have spent their hard earned time, energy and freedom. I feel these are true pioneers in an industry that could have cost them there own freedom and unfortunately, too many have gone to prison for growing a plant, to take the time to teach me their own personal recipes on how to create Feminized cannabis seeds, with these lessons, I have created my own method of creating feminized pollen and now you have the knowledge too!
Much love
