I'm starting out with 1 tbsp per gal in just water, no nutes. I'm in Happy Frog, and do plain water (now with molasses) twice between feeding nutes. I'm in 2nd week of flower. Wanted to start earlier with the molasses, but never got around to it. Didn't look to see if Grandma's was organic, but it is unsulphured.

If you use synthetic nutrition......Molasses isn't going to do much at all.

You can find far cheaper molasses at your local restaurant/bakery supply.....It's Gordon's foods around here.
about $18 a gallon - unsulfured

I'm using black strap molasses with ffof soil. I'm not totally organic, but I believe there's enough life in the soil to make the molasses worth while. Harvesting in 3-4 weeks so we'll see.
Sounds good. Let me know how it goes. I'm only 3 weeks behind you. Running three strains now, but may switch back to just one. I have OG Kush (hyb), Buddah Tahoe OG (indica), and Julius Caesar OG (indica). I cloned them all. I haven't tried any of these. Might buy a gram of each from the dispensary and do a smoke test. Heard good things about OGK. Wife and I like Blue Dream. Indicas more for me at night for sleep. I have XXX OG that puts me in a coma at night. :hump:

I'm also running og kush along with amnesia and pineapple haze, chocolope and big bud. The og kush and chocolope are covered nicely in trics. Next run I'll be fully organic so then I can see how much more the molasses will benefit the soil and the plants.

My question is this, Blackstrap unsulfured molasses or Fancy unsulfured molasses?
One has way higher carbs/sugars than the other.

I always thought it was because of my lights (smaller flowers). Last grow I had both the 150w hps and the 200w cfl above, and they did fatten up. Still early in my grow right now though. They are starting to fill in the gaps, which is nice. Will have to wait and see if they fatten up or not towards the end. I'm having to lean some over with wire, since they are so close to the 150w hps now. I'll attach a pic tomorrow.

Molasses compared to honey it's like nute it has allot of good stuff, if anything keep pk handy or all rounder, one dose if they go lighter.... I cheated a little lol,

plus I think to my low yield I sort of defoliated abit too much. And too frequently :eyesmoke:.
Looking forward to your pics
