Towards the side connected to the 9v rail. That is, the higher the base voltage of the transistor the higher its emitter voltage and the more current the detector is given.
Mine breaks into oscillation about 1/4 of the way up from the ground side with a fresh battery. It depends on which way you wire up the pot which direction that is, but I generally wire mine so clock-wise is more of whatever it is controlling.

Which way do i need to turn the pot to obtain increasing regeneration?
