I've seen the silver smearing off either electrode [should be just one, right?]
Anyhow, you can buy Silver Hydroxide Reagent? and it's described as a white powder, virtually insoluable in water. There is a white powdery deposit that appears now and then under certain conditions. If the electrodes are very close to the bottom and no stirring is used, you get that white deposit on one side, a black spot on the other side under the electrode that turns black and shiny metallic plateout in between.
