molasses is the secret ingredient in a lot of fertalizers i use it and i add about i or 2 tsp per gallon, its one of those things that basicly brings out a lot of smell and makes the buds much more gooey ive found, i just recently did a test on a few plants of mine and the ones with molases definintly had a nicer smell and a little more weight to them i have read that it can add as much as 20% to the final weight, basicly you can use as much as you want but dont go crazy or else you will draw ants and stuff like that

its the stuff in the same isle as the pancake syrup. UN-sulphered mollasses. to dissolve it you need to stir the living shit out of your solution, it wont settle later so once its mixed your good. i use it thruout flowering and i DO NOT reduce the amount i put in for flush. i use 1-2 tablespoons per gallon.

to dissolve the molasses what i do is run the tap till it's hot and pour some into a measuring spoon, then i stick the spoon in the mouth of my watering bottle and run the hot water over it until it dissolves off the spoon. then, with the bottle less than half full by this point, i cap and vigorously shake until completely dissolved.
i am lucky enough that my tap water seems a good PH. then use cold water to fill the rest up and lower the temp. i use ferts along with mollases.

Unsulfurated or blackstrap. (oddly, the worse/lesser grade it is, the better it is. Its a by-product of making sugar)

Also, don't use in a hydro set up, its tends to clog pumps, jets/nozzles, etc. For a hempy it should work for, Just leary of it collecting at the bottom.

I use it, but can't comment on it. Never not used it, so no comparisons from me.

You can nuke 1 or 2 cups of water to help dissolve it, then put into main batch of water. I never measure it, just eyeball an amount. I'll also use it all through flowering, right up to harvest.
