the coloring is usually added by people who sell their pot and they dye it diff colors so that it has more bag appeal.......ive done it as a novelty but id never do it to be able to charge more for a bag(but then again i dont sell either).

So are you saying you can add food coloring in the water and the bud will grow that color?? or they just dye the buds? wtf ?

On both issues, Molases provides plant available carbs, and when in soil also stimulate good bacteria and good fungus associated with roots. As far as food coloring, most green plants will not absorb and transfer food coloring through roots (Osmosis) this is probably a rumor stemming from the fact that some cut flowers (White Carnations) can be fed food color to stain them.

fdd has a thread on food coloring on here..it works..he did a before and after. He turned his bud a shade of blue, it was pretty cool. I dont remember where the thread is but he cut the bud branch(im pretty sure at harvest) and sat the stem in the coloring and let it sit for awhile(dont remember how long) and it sucked it up. He did come on later and advice not to do it cause the smoke tasted like shit then.

Molasses doesn't make buds bigger, molasses is used at the end of the plants life cycle, usually during a flush, because at the end of the plants life it pushes all of the sugars out of its leaves and stems into the buds as a last effort to help them reproduce. If you feed a shit load of sugar (molasses, cool-aid I guess could work too :S )to the plant during this time your buds end up being sweeter to smoke.

molasses is essentially the same thing thats in carbo load. the sugars make the buds swell out, so therefore they do get a little fatter, but its not like they get some ungodly amount fatter or anything.

yea... I suppose, but its not really the bud getting bigger just filling with sugars. the real purpose is to give it the sweeter taste and smoke... but youre right, I shouldnt have said it flat out doesnt make them bigger.

you have to cut it RIGHT OFF THE PLANT the whole stem holding the bud and then stick that stem in 1/4 cup of water and like 18 drops of food coloring
