Accumulation of migrated silver particles that were ripped off the surface of the clean crystalline appearing electrode.

Back side of electrode showing the silver particles that have accumulated on the outer edge.
Also shown is the aquarium temperature strip gaug.

The 1 quart bottle containing the CS was barely moved and a portion of the fluff detached from electrode.

Thin edge of electrode with the partially detached fluff, exposing the electrode surface.

Detached fluff that is forming stringers of extremely fine silver fluff flowing away from electrode to bottom of jar.

At magnifications of 10x, 20x, 30x, 40x & 50x the photomicrographs shown below are a few of the clumps that fell off the electrode onto a glass slide. As the magnification increases the porous nature of the clumps becomes apparent, which is why I call it fluff.

This fluff is actually the accumulation of colloidal silver particles building up on one another as a direct consequence of the distilled water reaching saturation. Usually for fluff to occur in appreciable quantities the voltage is at 6VDC for 8 or more and water temperature at 70F to 78F. If the voltage is set at 4VDC it takes at least 4 hours longer to achieve same amount of fluff as is generated at 6VDC. This fluff will occur/accumulate really fast if the water is not agitated with a magnetic stirrer or air pumped bubbles. The Brownian movement is insufficient to stir the water enough for what I believe is good CS.

Also visible is the unique solid silver crystal growth. As yet, I have no reliable answer as to why these silver crystal anomalies grow and occur.
