molasses???

[first timer420]

i have been reading a lot about using molasses during buding but was wondering when to start using, exactly how much. I have read 2 different dilutions 1 teaspoon-1gal
2 tablespoons-1gal

You can use molassas throughout. Start with 1 TABLESPOON per gal of unchlorinated water. I normally dont use more than 2 TBSP by the time I get ready to harvest.

I heat up about 8 oz of water and mix in the tablespoon of molassas. Its easier to mix it up with the warm water. Then I dump it into the gal jug

Boneman is spot on!! i use throughout flowering at 1 tblspn per gal...i've even used it at the final flushing stage and the final product is sweet and delicious...

Ditto ~ And I use it all the way to the end/harvest. Oh and once a week in veg.

I just wanna jump in and clairify. Only use molasses in soil! It is a bad idea in hydroponics!!!

you don't have problems with gross stuff growing in your reservoir?
I've heard nothing but horror stories about that.

hell no..at least not yet i just changed my resevoir today and didnt notice anything different..i started using it a week into flowering and im 37days in

i heard bad shit to but thats just hear say to me so i tried it myself..i did go light on it tho since i heard it could clog up airstones etc...but 2 tablespoons for 7-8 gallons seems to be fine could even use a little more as far as im concerned..not sure on the final outcome or what it woulda been like without it but my plants are really nice 11inches 37days ago now their a little over 3ft with fat stanky buds

Yes! molassess is a good idea!! i have used from clone to harvest, the plants seem to like it. the benefit is more when flowering, It seems that plain water isn't so plain, PH adjusted, a little molassess and a little hydrogen peroxide is the "plain water" i use. It works for me very smooth,good tast.
