plants dont absorb sugar through their roots, they release sugar from their roots to support the symbiotic relationship plants have with certain bacteria and fungi, by adding molasses you increase the populations of these benies in the soil and therby increase the yield size.

Can you use Molasses in conjunction with liquid ferts or do you feed Molasses
by itself only?

I use with my fert mix, i dont use much and i dont use it very often, it takes bacteria a while to break down sugar so just use a little

fox farm hydro three pack, plus miracle grow, cause the hydro three pack doesnt have urea which is good for soil, brer rabbit, great white, and general hydro ph down,

Not only this but the extra calmag from large quantities of mollasses can stop the uptake of N.
