Molasses is simply a sugar source for the microhizzae in the soil. If you run hydro or chemical nutes it's probably not going to help much. In organic soil, however, it's great. The micros eat the sugar and release the NPK for the plant. I use it every few waterings with good results.

It is the way to activate soil and feed soil. This is how I grow, mushrooms, pill bugs, and all. Kellogg Organic Soil, mixed with you favorite additives, comes to life when fed molasses, dark brown or a mascavo sugar brewed into nutes

so im trying now my latest batch, using 1 tablespoon of pure sugar cane honey, per liter, every 2 weeks, during flower. and theres a LOT more resin, more trichomes, more keif in the grinder, and a sweeter taste. perhaps next time ill up it more.

from what i understand, its not really honey at all, its just sugar cane syrup. ill check the label, but either way, if ya see this (i got mine at a healthy food store...) get a bottle and give it a try

i have also been using pure cane brown sugar with my feeding. i started out no ph tests no nutrients and i have heard somewhere that plants feed off sugars so i gave it a try i figure i need some type of nutrition for my plant as the water in my area is disgusting.. now when i first had my plant what i would do is take a tall glass of water mix in a big chunk of brown sugar and also i heard something about plants feeding off corn syrup so what i did also is mix in some cheap maple syrup frum the dollar tree after doing this for about a week or so i realized that i had turned my soil solid from all the syrup so since than i have got some fox farm soil+ solution and also grabed a few more plants from my doner same plant different clone same time now i have not givin them any of my maple sugar remedy and as much as i hear maple syrup and brown sugar will not do anything i have to say my experiment plant has completely outgrown the others by farfarfar i reguraly top my plants and cut all new growth as to branch out in doubles and i have to say the plant is by far the healthiest one and i am thinking about putting sugars and syrup back in my water along with my foxfarm grow big and superthrive nutrients. i would give it a try people make sure not to overdo it as you definetly want a lot more water than anything but give it a try. if any1 is interested i will post pics also what i am exploring is feeding with a small dose of cloning powder which may sound outragous to some but i hear the biggger the root the bigger the fruit ive researched a little and giving one solid dose will not killer your plants so im mad scientisting everything i can will see how it comes together so far so good:hump:

IDK about 'brown' sugar, but I don't think you will do anything but attract pests. If it is like regular granulated sugar, it won't help the plant either. (Wrong type of sugars)
I'm not exactly sure why not, but molasses doesn't seem to attract bugs or animals.
