Seeds from plant sprayed with colloidal silver

    I took 3 clones from 1 mother and treated 2 of them (in a separate tent) with STS to get them to produce pollen. I pollinated the 3rd clone with pollen from the healthier looking of the treated plants in hopes of creating fem seeds of this cut for the future.

    My question is about the plants that were treated with the CS. Not going to consume the plants in any way, but wonder if the seeds I’m finding in the CS treated clones might have hermephroditic tendencies or would they be viable feminized?

    That is how feminized seeds are made, so I don’t see any reason for them to be prone to herm unless the original mother showed signs of herning.

      If that’s the case, the untreated clone was not needed?

        I’m looking to do it myself. How many times did you spray. When did you start to spray

          I followed a guide that Rasta Jeff made on hisThe Grow From The Heart podcast (shout out) where he goes through everything from making the STS solution through application. Google Rasta Jeff my sts mix or on yt

        Safer that way, cleaner, and you’ll get more seeds from a healthy female clone.

    Intersex traits come from the genetics, not any process of reversal with silver.

      So there would be no difference between the seeds in the treated plants vs seeds from a fem sister clone pollinated with the treated plant’s pollen?

        The genetics are the genetics when feminizing. You’re not going to introduce any genes that are not already there when selfing.
