I dare not taste it but i think the guy on ebay is ripping people off by selling molasses water.

seaweedcharlie - oceanic liquid seaweed fertilizer

I could be wrong though. Maybe that's how it smells. He gets good customer feedback but one would get good results from molasses anyway.

Digital, thanks for sharing your concern. A drop on the tongue would not kill you. You can rinse your mouth afterwards. We can eat poisonous fungi, we can handle a drop of seaweed..or..molasses!

Make your own: molasses, a little kelp meal, a bucket of water, fish tank bubbler. You would probably make this faster than it can be shipped to you, or look into getting some Maxi crop then add some molasses to it if you’re not interested in making your own.

Sorry to hear you got ripped off, you should mail them back a box of human feces as a gift; tell them it’s a token of your appreciation.:mrgreen:

I tasted some..and it didn't even taste vaguely nice so i'm assuming it is sea weed water.. my fail!! sorry peeps!
Thanks the info though:) Why the fish tank bubbler? Wouldn't it work just to brew them up slightly, obviously not boil as that would kills the enzymes.?

The extra air from the fish tank bubbler (pump) will oxygenate the water which will keep the bacteria aerobic, without the oxygenated water the good bacteria will die and anaerobic bacteria will quickly take over, the end result is will not be positive for your plants or your olfactory senses

molasses, maxicrop, and a couple handfuls of castings .................... it's all about cooking up some good stuff for the plants. This guy on ebay is most likely selling good stuff. Could it be made in your kitchen easy.... a resounding YES.

I cook for a living. I could for myself. I could for my kids. I cook for my plants. Damn I really feel like a short order chef (which is what I am, LOL)


The point is I don't buy something that could be just molasses. Ebay home brew....................??? too risky. Make it yourself and save the question in your head of the "snake oil salesman."
