I used mollasses for my 1st time 2 weeks ago, I was in 5th week flower, now there in 7th week flower n looking fat.. I have posted a thread on it on my page, an someone has commented, and left a link to a page containing everythink about mollasses, click on my name to find my thread..

I used sugar cane mollasses, there seems to be a few different types out there, but this worked for me..

I use a 14litre buckket to feed my tent, with 15 x 6.5L pots in, I was adding 50ml canna boost, until wk 5 when I ran out..

With mollasses its like a tar mixture, I mixed 100ml of boiling water per table spoon of mollasses.. then added this to my 14 L mix, which only contained 35ml of each Canna A & B, used PK 13/14 in week 3 of flower for one week..

Also used supervit right through crop, not sure how much effect its having, but started with it an always used it.. very cheap n onyl 2 drops in my 14 l buckett each time..

You want a blackstrap or unsulphured molasses. I use 1-2 tsp/gallon of water but I've heard of people using up to 3tbsp/gallon of water. I mix it in the same time that I mix in the other nutes.

Yep, you can get Grandma's Unsulphered Molassas at Wal-Mart, near the pancake syrup. Use a TBSP per gallon of water, mix it right in with the water and feed that way. I start mine on the molassas at about two weeks old.:peace:
