Well at your stage your plants should be getting Bloom Nutrients. I wouldn't suggest molasses water until 6-7 weeks (based on 8 weeks of flowering),but it can be given anytime
but is usually used when flushing the last couple of weeks,because excessive carbohydrates aren't good.

Any pictures?

if this is outdoor grow.. molasses is OK.

Indoors.. it could get ugly

Hey man, you got any tips for LST as far as what to use to hold branches down? I get the concept i just cant think of anything to use that will stick in the soil?

Drill small holes in the pots upper rim. Or most pots have an enlarged top rim that you can tie string around and will not pull off the top. Then use that to tie branches too.

this kid is in week two of flower and he's asking for tips to increase yield and you guys are telling him to lst to increase yield ? God, im glad i don't take advice on here.

Bro, get yourself a

two part flower base (a) and (b)
big bud
molasses if your in soil
seaweed or sea kelp
silica

i could go on and on but im sure you dont have the money for all of it

Me personally use string and tape because i grow in small containers,but i start off bending the whole plant to a side with the least growth and tie on the stalk of the plant to container(middle-top) but in a way its under 2 fan leaves,but this is done in veg.But flowering you would do the same but with the branches.The whole objective is to give all of your plant some light while making those branches grow up which is the usual way of training.

Use wire hooks and weights. I don't tie squat. Anything that you can hang.

Thats good stuff but big bud and silica are pretty expensive.
there are plenty of good things for a grower on a budget. Look into organics, much of it can be sourced cheaply

Really? No disrespect brotha. But who are you to say he can't afford it? Unless I'm missing something, as far as you know....you don't make shit compared to him.

protek silica is 14.00 .. How is that expensive ? Organics wont get you big ass buds like this kid wants. He needs synthetic nutrients.

But one thing your under thinking Vagellie is 90% of it depends on your growing skills AND GENETICS. If you got shitty genetics nothing can help you.. Man i started out in this game getting a Half pound per 1,000 watt light, fucking terrible... I had to fail a few times to become successful. Now a days i'm hitting 1.8 a light with room for improvement.

and LOL .. Hey hunter thanks for that Tid-bit of info... So where are your tips ?

my advise is dont waste your money on all these 'fancy' extra's...keep your leaves green. this can easily be done on a budget, and without all the fancy bloom enhancers..

10-54-10 < hmmmm :wall:

10-54-10 Schultz Bloom plus is very cheap ($6-$

but very effective als

nly 1/4 tsp per gallon of water full strength for house plants and 1 tbs for outdoor,though i tend to add a lil bit more at a certain stage of flowering.Just enough that i will get very slight nute burn only on the tips

I use coathangers cut into strips 4 or 5 inches long then fold them in half and use them to hold the branches down. Works great.
Also, I'm not one of the believers in molassas, I think it gives the bud a un-natural taste and smell, I'd never use it again.
