Hello! I was reading up on giving your plants molasses and what all the benefits are, just got a quick question. Can you give molasses when giving your plants other nutes? Like when i water my plant tonight, im giving her some Tiger Bloom and Hydroguard...Its okay to put the molasses in with that, right?

1 tablespoon of unsulpherized molasses in 1 gallon of water

Thanks!

molasses served us in the seventies when you couldnt find nutrients like you can today.
plants dont eat molasses. nasty pests do though. beneficial organisms love molasses.
a drop in a bucket of water is a great beginning to a swell bubbling tea.
Molasses blooms bene's in your container pots only to die and go anaerobic causing issues.
100% of those beneficial organisms will already be thriving in your balanced soil web if your watering habits are right
and your feeding habits are organically based, like shit or compost.
Molasses can impart off flavors when jammed this way into container pots, its nasty too. it will not help you
while using quality nutrient systems that are salt based. Check out some organic fertilizers like roots, organicare, jobes even, its exactly what marijuana plants want in their substrate

Yes you can at about 5 ml per gallon mixed in well as it will fall to the bottom of your nutrient solution and stick to the container

No harm, no foul. But I agree completely.
