Is Grandma's Unsulphured Molasses fine to use during the flush? If any one has used this brand what were your results?

This was all i could find at publix, so i got it.

I dont really measure i just pour a little in a milk jug full of water then shake it up and slowly (making sure it drains in the soil) pour it at the base and around the plant..

id say about a tablespoon per gallon...

Is their any way you could overdose with molasses and actually harm your plant?

So do you just put the amount in the gallon n just shake it until it turns an amber color then your ready to go?

Is there any way if your in ground in soil that molasses can hurt your plant?

no molasses can do nothing but help

let the mixtue sit for 24 hours and shake it up a couple times


i use 11/2 tblspoons to the gallon

I found this at the grandmas website apparently black strap has the higher nutritional value so its better than grandmas but grandma still is good enough



What Is Molasses?
The highest grade, pure molasses - like Grandma's - is made from 100% pure, natural sugarcane juices, clarified, reduced, and blended to get just the right color and consistency. But there's difference in grades of molasses.
The purest molasses is pure cane juice. If a manufacturer wants sugar, the cane juice will be processed. The result is a raw sugar and low purity molasses. But Grandma's Original Molasses (Gold Label) is the original, high purity, unprocessed cane juice without any sugar extraction. In manufacturing raw sugar, after the cane has been harvested and mashed, the raw juices are boiled to extract sugar. To produce table sugar, the manufacturer will further process raw sugar into refined sugar. The remaining syrup - after the sugar has been crystallized - is called first molasses. Grandma's Robust Molasses (Green Label) is a blend of first molasses. First molasses, a thick brown syrup, is then thinned with water and re-boiled so that more raw sugar can be extracted.
The leftover syrup from the second boiling is second molasses, and so on. The more boiling you have, the less sweet molasses becomes until you get down to three or more boilings. By this time, the molasses known as "blackstrap" has almost no sweetness, but the highest nutritional value.
Grandma's Original Molasses is pure, concentrated cane juice, and retains its natural sugar content. It's sweet, light and never bitter. Grandma's Molasses is a rich, amber-color that blends beautifully with other foods and enhances the natural flavors of the ingredients with which it is mixed.

I use 1 tsp per gal of water and I feed them every other water. I've been told that you can bump it up to 2 tsp per gal. It makes your buds thicker and sweeter. Yup, been using it for quite a while with no problems. :)

I keep seeing people use tbsp's not tsp's...so too much cant hurt it?

im not really sure... i meant i guess it wouldnt be a problem... but when you make guano teas and what not thats what you do so i just figured it was the same with the molasses just helps it get evenly distributed i guess
