All I knew or could find out about CS back then was....almost absolutely
nothing...which alone was enough to figure out how not to do it.
Total ignorance is an opportunity to dispel tradition.
I never thought using salt was a good idea and never tried it.
As a former seat-o-the pants electro-plater, I always used de-ionized water
in the vats...and..current control set by observation.
"Purity and the right current to match the shapes was very important to
results.
"Burnt" edges and un-plated inside corners that need bleed wires teach
about ion discharge in reverse, by observation.
The idea was to make "silver water" not "silver and who knows what" water.
If you don't know what's "supposed" to be in there, don't use it until the
results say you should try something else you know nothing about.
After the initial "Nope, black ain't it"... the results just said tweek the
current and observe closer, nothing else needed. [Try not to burn it next
time, ey? ..like, creep up on it with a garden trowel and a don't use
dynamite first.]
Surprise! "Silver water" is NOT light sensitive...like EVERYONE said.
..and if I don't do *that*, it doesn't get [burnt] yellow like everyone
said it should be.

I find it hard to believe that you screwed up your first batch ?
I did a perfect job on my first batch, and every batch since.
It must be the very high tech, super complex generator that I use.
Or it may be the control system that controls it. <grin>
I know........ some people get carried away and wind up in Cloud 9.
