They should have it at your local store. You can google the name it should come up back here on RIU depending how you search. You want the purest form hope that helps.So ive been thinkin and ive decided molasses couldnt hurt while im flushing, but the only thing is i dont know what i should use lol ( brand, etc. ). Also, can i just pick some up at the grocery store, or do i have to go to a garden center?
thanks guys

Just make sure you get blackstrap molasses (hint: It's not a brand name).
As long as the molasses is unsulphured molasses everything will be cool and the gang. That is if used in the correct proportions per gallon of water.

unsulfured molasses just means that there was no additional sulfur used in the process of making the molasses... sulfur fumes are used to make the sugar cane ripen faster when its picked to early so that the molasses made with it is less bitter... there is are natural sulfurs in the molasses.. its the additional shit they use that you want to stay away from... molasses that is not unsulfured will contain TOO much sulfur, even if it is a mirco nute..
secondly chlorine in the form of CHLORIDE is a micro nute.. not straight chlorine like they use to clean you water supply or pool with... thats why typically tap water with chlorine should be avoided.. a small amount isnt bad.. and letting it evaporate takes care of it anyways.. but high levels of the chlorine used to clean water/pools is not good for your plant and not the micro nute they need...
oh.. i dont think anyone would use straight chlorine on their plants.. or at least i hope they wouldnt..

sadly, yea... it wouldnt surprise me... thats why i wanted to add that little bit to what you said... i could see some new grower taking pool cleaner and feeding their plants with it... and then saying "well i read somewhere that chlorine is a micro nute.. i thought it would be good".. or even just posting it in a forum.. "is pool cleaner ok to use on a plant for a chlorine def"... lol
