Not sure what freddys is. You can find it most local grocery stores in the syrup isle sitting next to the Pancake and kiro syrups. I found mine at walmart. I know some people that arent in the US find it at health food stores.

You should only use the molassas during the last 2 weeks of flowering, NOT during veg.
I would flush the plants you were feeding it to during veg. before you put into flower.

I am using molasses right now, at the end of flowering... So far, the plant seems to be enjoying it! There are crystals all over my bud, and they got a lot more dense real fast!

What? will this really harm the plant during veg? I thought the roots loved living in the most complex soil they can?

One serving of two teaspoons contains 32 calories and the following minerals:

manganese 0.36 mg, 18.0 % daily value
copper 0.28 mg, 14.0 % daily value
iron 2.39 mg, 13.3 % daily value
calcium 117.53 mg, 11.8 % daily value
potassium 340.57 mg, 9.7 % daily value
magnesium 29.38 mg, 7.3 % daily value
selenium 2.43 mcg, 3.5 % daily value
Figured I would post these numbers this is whats inside two teaspoons of grandma's molasses. The daily value is for human consumption.

any simple sugar complex will work but molasses has other useful stuff in it as well. sum people say it produces a not so desirable taste tho.
i think its to increases micro biology? but not sure?
i know its great to add 2 compost teas!
