YES, ANOTHER MOLASSES THREAD!!

Here's the simple rules:

1.) State the brand
2.) State the amount used per gallon
3.) State how many times a week you use it
4.) If possible, attach a photo of your beauty(s)

:leaf:Hope some of you can gain some knowledge and ideas from all of the others that are willing to give us their molasses schedules and own personal expierences with it:leaf:

Wow, NOBODY wants to share their molasses feeding schedule?

Well I just started mine a couple days ago..

-Grandmas unsulphured Molasses
-2 TBSP per gallon
-3x to 4x weekly
-No pics yet, have to get a camera charger!

Lets see if this can grow to help some of our beginners!!!

Damn sure got some beauties!! How much do you think u'll yield off the first one? and how much per gallon do you use?

Yea im sick of the molasses threads to its just i know what it does and what not, im just curious mainly as to how much people use per gallon and how often...also how big/small their plants are to see if thats the only reason why they take that little or a lot of molasses...

Thanks for replyin though!!

If my plants were smaller than yours (about 3.5-4.5 feet)...would it be cool to use 2 TBSP...will more harm it in any way? Thats the only thing im confused about..

you cant really harm your plants with molasses persay... the problem with it, is whatever the plant doesnt use just hangs around. And when you have all that sugar just sitting around it attracts lots of bugs. See what im sayin?

Iv used 4tbsp a gallon and plants were fine, just had ant problems for a while.

2tbsp should be good though, even for your 3.5-4ft plants. If you start having bug problems then use less.


Best of luck to smoka, im out for the night <3

how about a controlled study ? half with molasses half without all growing in the same place, splitting the room in half so as not to have all the ones under the best lighting getting the molasses and see if it makes a real difference or just a percieved difference.
also maybe a control in 2 different hydro tanks to see if the sugars cause excess bad bacterium ?
just a thought, but i could grow super fat nugs and piss on them and say they were super fat cuz i peed on them .. we need a control study

Theres been plenty...Maybe people on here have done studies..One with molasses and one without...the one with had about a 20% increase in swelling or something..

I even think Jorge Cervantes himself did a study and got the same results
