That was the other one I heard of, but I forgot the name
I already planned on using molasses, just wondered if there was another one to add on top of it possibly.

I heard that when someone mentioned the Bud Blood, but then someone said KoolBloom was amazing. I'll save my money if it doesn't really help, but you said Bud Blood would help even with molasses?

Bud Blood you use right at the beginning of flowering. I guess Koolbloom is a 2 part system I dunno I just looked into it. I never saw the point of stuff like bud candy, I don't flush, but I don't want a nute just for the last few weeks of flowering either. Molasses will put enough sugars that will turn into carbs in the buds. It's just a lot cheaper.

I like to add some alaska fish fertilizer about 3-4- time during the flower stage along with molasis and snow storm for the dense sweet flowers. I use all aruora products usually on the organic side but sometimes i mix in some synthetic just to try new things.

I didn't think plants could absorb carbs... And it's used in the last part I'm guessing because KoolBloom is so high in P&K, it probably can't handle it that early in the flowering stage. I didn't know there were 2 parts to it either, where did you read that at?

my flush lately has consited of no nutes for the last 10 day and the same watering just with clear ph'd water and i have been loving the taste of it and no chemical taste at all even when it is still a little fresh but after full cure man it is sweet tasting and smelling. I think as long as you stay somewhat organic and do not give any "n" during the last 4 weeks your fine and dont really need to spend time flushing. happy farming

1st half of flowering = N lower then P, P lower then K, K is 50% to 100% more then N. ex. 8-12-16
2nd half of flowering = N equal to P, K higher then N and P, K is still 50% to 100% more than N. ex 8-8-16
K controls; fruit mass/density/taste. an orange tree with low K produces golf ball sized oranges, BUT a tree with high K produces grapefruit size oranges. but its still always good to flush all nutes out beore harvesting, they literally leave salt in the plant and leaves/bud.

and molasses is good because it has cal/mag/iron. I don't think the plant eats the sugar though, maybe the smallest fraction but mostly its food for all pests(ants, white flys, thripes, spider mites, algae). i used it for 2 grows and stopped because of the pest anomalies.

so what does the salt do because if it has to do with taste or smell i like it. can you intake the salt into your body? what r th e health risk's?

i read somwhere that the sugars are absorb'd into the plant and excreted somewhat like sweating to you and i but not on the plant like the thc so dont get me wrong but more like an oily substance on all the vegitation. I know that since i have been using molassis i have noticed a change in color of the bud as well as tasting alot sweater. the color change has went from a green cover'd with trics to a darker red green cover with trics.

Molasses doesn't affect the taste when it comes to the sugars. Tt's because the plant is healthier from having those micronutes, not because of the sugar.

well i have been growing the same strain for a few years white widow and i have been able to change the taste and color by switching from organic to synthetic fert and vise versa and also by introducing a larger dose of micro nutes during the stretch. so i have seen first hand that what you feed them will change the flavor and color/size of buds/amount of trichomes they produce and so on. believe what you want and ill believe what is true.!!!!

Yeah, that's changing nutes, of course it will affect the taste xD Tequila however, won't
