So you have done this test?. Al B you know i have gotten some tips from you in the past... but there are credible growers that state that these sugars ...actually Mollases gives you about 20% increase on girth... now 20% isnt much... but it is... Mr HIgh times jorge cervantes has run these tests and he says your wrong al B.....Could be the perspective of your lighter in the b/g that makes it look smaller than I'm thinking it is. The bucket that the budstalk is sitting on in my pic is your typical 9L bucket, about 300mm dia. The stalk is about 450 or 500mm long. Ones that size usually yield about 1-1.25 oz for me.
Do a parallel test, running several with and several without molasses in the same crop. If you're lucky, there'll be no difference, simply because vascular plants (not just cannabis) can't use complex carbohydrates as a nutrient and simply will ignore the stuff. The downside is the potential to feed pathogens.
Do what I did- head for the web, search for peer-reviewed data from the horticultural or botanical college of a large university that substantiates any claim that sugars are useful as a plant food. Ignore all data from growers and sellers of sugar sauces. You will find what I did, which is a whole not of nothing in support of use of sugars as a nutrient.
If you don't get mould & fungi, whatever you're using for pathogen control is working.
So whats up...
