Hi!, Just stopped in to say nice plant! Try a tablespoon of molasses in a gallon of water, every other watering till they're finished. Don't forget to let the top half of the root ball dry out a bit. They flower hard when they feel a drought coming on in the roots. Too much water reduces size and potency. Similarly, If you over do it with the molasses you end up encouraging too much micro-biologic activity (meaning harmful fungus & molds). You really just want to feed the soil organisms a bit and sweeten the taste of your buds. Go easy.Just a proud first timer, anyone have advice for using molasses, I stopped fert. about three days ago,
I use one tablespoon/gallon water up until three weeks before harvest. You don't have any yellow leaves yet, so I'd give it at least one watering with the molasses solution to make the microbes that assist the roots happy.Just a proud first timer, anyone have advice for using molasses, I stopped fert. about three days ago,
Sorry to differ but I disagree...Using it sparingly all the way to the finish has made my buds taste slightly sweet at the end.Molasses does not add a sweet taste to your buds.
Correct, or mine would taste like cow shit.Molasses does not add a sweet taste to your buds.
Get a brix meter and study plant sugars. Sugars increase with molasses.Correct, or mine would taste like cow shit.

No doubt it's all in my mind about the sweeter taste but I won't complain about the illusion!"Molasses, honey, and other sugars are said to increase soil microbials, enhance regrowth, and make the plant's use of

I've used molasses for a few years, not just with weed, but couldn't tell any taste difference with or without. Your mileage may differ.
I agree, and have seen that enhanced plant health is possible by using a sugar, molasses, etc. to 'feed' soil microbes that in turn will help release nutrients etc. ala Jerry Baker eh?"Molasses, honey, and other sugars are said to increase soil microbials, enhance regrowth, and make the plant's use of
