First order of misperception is that...you can't see ions.
What you are seeing is clouds of particles forming in two different
places under somewhat different conditions where the dissolved ionic
concentration in the container is the highest near the emmitting electrode
and the attracting electrode much like crystals will form when making rock
candy in a supersaturated solution.
Stirring, amongst other effects, virtually eliminates the high
concentration zones.

In many cases I have seen colloid deposits flowing
from both polarity sides on the CS process,with equal
surface areas immersed and this is not a high voltage
deal, just a 1.22 ma DC current limited process. Do
you think that it is possible to have both positive
and negative ions in a solution? I think it is noted
that this is true for ordinary water electrolysis
processes when an electrolyte is present. Do you think
that the distilled water makes a difference where only
a predominant positive polarity ion is released? I
also noticed that the positive seems to release a
whiter cloud than does the negative, and that the
negative seems more prone to release the colloids
initially, at a darker shade. Since the electron is
the charge carrier, should we suspect a negative side
to also emit ion colloids, especially when visual
observances indicate this possibility? Thanx for any
comments on this matter. Due to the fact that you are
only using a large surface area for the positive side,
perhaps your statements only apply to your particular
method. One last question, if I may; I assume it is
permissable to use a copper wire as the negative
electrode with far less surface area from your
previous comments, correct? Wouldnt this also imply
that you are then only making positive colloids of
silver?
Do you think it possible that other metals such as
copper can also make colloids, or is the metal silver
unique in this aspect?
In another off topic experiment I was wanting to make
a colloidal suspension of nickel from Canadian
magnetic coins. THIS OF COURSE IS NOT FOR DRINKING,
but for some resonance experiments I was making where
water is used as the capacitive dielectric. Do you
think it possible to make a nickel colloid in the same
manner as silver colloids are made? If this were
possible I this suggests that I would be making a
water suspension that would be slightly magnetic,
since the nickel Canadian coins themselves are
magnetic.
