the answer is yes molasses is worth using in the vegetative state and not only pertainable to the flowering period
Liquid molasses, dry molasses powder, brown sugar, corn syrup-
Source of fast consuming sugars for feeding and breeding the aerobic bacteria in compost teas. Most microherd populations love the high carbon content in sugar products. Sugars are best dissolved and broken down by microbes in compost tea that has brewed at least 1-3 days, before applying to the soil. If too much sugar is added on soil straight as a topdressing, it may cause a temporary nitrogen deficiency in the soil as the microherd populations grow too fast. Molasses also contains sulfur which acts as a mild natural fungicide also. Molasses is also a great natural deodorizer for fishy teas.
NOTE: Recent studies have shown that unsulfured molasses or dry molasses powder is best for faster aerobic microbial growth in tea brewing. For a more fungal tea don't add too much simple sugar or molasses to your aerobic teas. Use more complex sugars, starches and carbohydrates like in seaweed, rotten fruit, soy sauce, or other fungal foods
using 2 tbl. per gallon once every two weeks is proven to speed growth and make for a bushier plant
this picture given to me by a good friend MisterNiceGuy was an experiment run and are the same age,
von dress on the right as you can see is slightly bushier and consists of larger top fan leaves
