Sex reversal experiment - Silver Thiosulphate

[Naycha]

Just a couple of pics of a Lush female I have treated with Silver Thiosulphate (STS) in order to produce male flowers to make fem seed with. I haven't done it before so although there are male flowers forming I'll still have to wait to see if they fully develop and produce pollen.

 

This plant was treated with 3 microlitres of STS  over 5 days, applied by syringe as a drop to the apical meristem (the growing tip). Application was started not long before the first 12 hour dark period.

 

Sorry about the pic quality I took a heap and these were the best I could get. The pistils you can see were present as preflowers at the time of application.

 

If you have any questions please fire away.
