Well I picked up some molasses from the dollar storea couple days ago, becuase I couldnt find any Grandma's Molasses. I got Brer Rabbit Mild Molasses instead. I used this for the first week, but later found some grandma's molasses, that seems to be a popular brand, and I know many growers on here use it. After comparing nutrional facts, however I believe the cheaper Brer Rabbit Mild brand is much more effiecent for the plants. Here is the exact Nutrional Facts for both you guys tell me what you think
GRANDMA'S MOLASSES, ORIGINAL------ Brer Rabbit Mild Flavor
Calories: 60 ----------------------------- Calories: 60
Total Fat: 0g -----------------------------Total Fat: 0g
Trans Fat: 0g ----------------------------Trans Fat: 0g
Sodium 15 mg ----------------------------Sodium 20: mg
Potassium 150 mg------------------------ Potassium 200mg
Total Carbohydrate 15g -------------------Totaly Carbs: 15g
Sugars 10g -------------------------------Sugars: 13g
Protein 0 ---------------------------------Protein: 0
Calcium 4% ------------------------------Calcium 6%
Iron 4%---------------------------------- Iron 8%
Magnesium 2% ---------------------------Magnesium 8%
As you can see Brer Rabbit out does gransma's molasses in the very important nutrional values the plants use from molasses. Im not so sure if I like the higher sodium level however, but 5mg isnt a signifcant amount more. What do you guys think? Seems to me that the Dollar Store brand would be better.
