What do you prefer to ripen your buds?

[TheWhiteRabbit420]

I'm getting close to bloom and I'm considering some nutrients to boost and help produce larger denser buds.

now isn't the main ingredient here sugar and carbohydrates which feed the plant during the most pivotal part of its life?

i hear some people choose extremely organic nutrients like molasses to ripen the buds
I've also heard good things about bud candy and big bud. One friend of mine uses several different kinds including bid bug and a carb nutrient solution for his hydro setup.

Im growing in soil and bomby uses bud candy for his setup which is almost identical to mine and with exceptional results !

What has given me super dense rock hard buds is alternating molasses at 1 tbs to a gallon of water and the next plain watering I use 10ml of botanicare Sweet. It has made my buds like rocks.

I use Advanced Nutrients Nirvana. It makes the flowers taste and smell heavenly. I also use big bud when I want more size. Nirvana when I want more quality less size.

Big bud sounds nice-
i might give the molasses a try any specific type?

(I just read an article on certain bloom boosters that contain poisonous fertilizers I hope everyone here is aware!)

I use Bud Candy and Liquid Karma as my carbohydrate source

I use hydroplex and koolbloom dry but im actually considering not using them.

unsulphured molasses like grandmas yellow label buy it at walmart or grocery store

Why not use both. Bud candy works better then nirvana for smells and flavors.

Use Unsulphured Blackstrap Molasses 1 tbsp per gallon of water.

No I wont use both. It's either or. Might try Bud Candy.

So blackstrap molasses, unsulphered and bud candy I assume are the most popular and effective

Yea unsulphured blackstrap molasses is cheapest and works. Bud Candy is a little more $ but you can use it from week 1 until flush.

I like to use seaweed/kelp liquid extract, molasses and shooting powder.
The shooting powder layers buds and builds buds on top of buds.
I get rock hard tasty buds as well.

 

[Juggalotusandyouknowthis]

Would I use this mixture by alternating the molasses mix and then big bug nutes, cause I only have big bud brand flowering nutrients and if I could use two ways to make em denser and bigger why not do it

Leaves.....it's what plants crave.

 

[power1990]

big bud and over drive cant go wrong had fantastic results with them 2

I've tried molasses several times and it did nothing to harden my buds. I think keeping your plant healthy and green right to the end makes rock hard buds.
