Your laser beam seems just right judging from the pics. You want a solid beam of silver particles so small you dont see them "twinkle" in the laser light. Hows it looking with the lights on? The best CS mixes Ive made always finished amber in color when you hold it up against something totally white. A TDS pen wont tell you much honestly. I believe the laser will tell you far more than a TDS pen will.
Heres a couple tips that may be helpful since not many like to give up the info:
-If you have larger particulates from the negative silver rod (or coin half in your case), you can filter it by running it through coffee filters into another jar.
-Since you are using distilled water, you can save a few oz of that solution and use it as a catalyst for the next batch by just adding it to the fresh new distilled water. The colloidal effect will happen
much faster.
-Keep your finished solution in a cabinet or brown paper bag or something to keep it out of the light. Light will diminish its strength.
-No refrigeration required when storing it.
-When applying it to the plant(s), only spray the buds sites and not the entire plant.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
