that's a bit of a soil trick. adding the right amount of molasses is like adding bud candy, sweet, floranecter or many of the other sweetners. I don;t want to say to do it as I have never run DWC. i do use in COCO though.

So have you done a real comparison and has it been sweeter? I have heard of sweeteners and all that jazz but it is all foreign to me. I know nothing about sweeteners but I love sweets and I really love a great tasting smoke, like Blue Dream, so I am interested but I need to know more info.

With a week left, I wouldn't bother. Plus it's adding carbs, I dunno if they can break down in water to become available for the plant. In COCO i have some biological activity going on to assist in the breakdown of the sugars. I don't know enough about dwc to say.

As far as effectiveness, I couldn;t really tell you as I have had too many variables from crop to crop to say.

Nothing like that bro, it starts the fermentation (curing process). Shit I drowned a plant in molasses to kill it off. One of the smoothest smokes I ever grown!!! I documented it in a thread on here. Bro I always try different things. Wheels told me about boiling water and pouring it in the roots to kill off a plant. I looked into it and I am going to try it.

I must be missing something, why are you killing your plants?

Here was my latest victim of drowning....Purple Le' Pew 12/12 from seed.
This plant was grown in a smart pot that BC99 made, it was a little bit bigger than my Coffee Mug. I put the whole pot inside a empty Coffee Container.

Then I took my water/molasses mix (15ml to 1 gallon of water(tap)). I filled it up till her whole medium water completely submerged in the water/molasses mix.

I use the brick to make sure the container doesnt float up when its full. Now some people do this in the dark but I do it under the lights. It can take anywhere from 4-10 days to drown and die. Especially if you have a healthy ass plant.

This is what it looks like after 1 day, you can see the plant wickered the water cause its trying to survive, thats when you top it off cause you want the medium completely submerged at all times.

Its something different and I like it cause I enjoy smooth smoking bud that you dont have to wait weeks for it to cure.

Hope this give you all an idea of what I am talking about.
