Just mix about 1 tablespoon per gal, once or twice a week.

There's a school of thought that starts molasses at week 4 of 12/12, or at the beginning of the 2nd month. Used for first time last grow. Will continue to use. My fears were insect/sugar related, but I saw none.
I advise only mixing what you're about to use. Stored in a gallon jug, some molasses seems to ferment, and then IT REEKS! This may be a "lite" molasses thing?

no ill be gone for 7...i heard some kid with masterkush flowered his at 6 inches and they are now 30 inches! you guys might have seen that thread...but if im anywhere close to thirty inches ill be more than happy...

just added about 1/4 cup of bone meal to each plant and watered with molasses...i know you should start molasses around the third week of flowering but it couldn't hurt right?

they are looking great! ill get some quality pics up soon

nice. well like I said, I overwatered mine on accident and didn't have to water again for about that long. I have a water meter and it was still reading 8-10 all week. So I think you would be fine if you wanted to let them veg longer. And yes plants can typically double or triple their size once you start flowering.

nooooooooooooooooooooooooo say it aint so. you don't wanna trade your killer first grow to make a woman happy. tell her to wait for second harvest and just get her ripped on yer weed . that will make her plenty happy... just dont run out before your second grow finishes lol.
as for going 7 days ... as long as you are running 24/0 or have a good timer on 18/6 and in soil you will be fine just water right before you go and allow some water to sit in the catch tray underneath it will wick back up in the second day or so and give you a bit more time
