Rep Power: 39 | | 2 Weeks To Go!!!! Molasses?
I wanna no if I should use molasses my last 2 weeks? I've cut out nutes and just read the stickey. I'm thinking of using 2 tablespoons per gal. Anyone w/ experience that can lend a hand? |

Yes Molasses Is Alway's A Good Thing, That Sound's Right If You Are In Soil, But If You Are Doing Hydro? I Wouldn't Go More Then 1ml Per Gallon.

Rep Power: 219 | | two tablespoons (tbsp), not two teaspoons(tsp). i take a microwavable bowl, pour in the cold distilled or filtered water, add 2 tablespoons of blackstrap molasses, microwave for about a minute. then pour that back into nutrient mix. DO NOT pour molasses into nutrient mix and then heat. just water and molasses in the microwave. this is per gallon of course

So, this use of black-strap molasses is ONLY during the last two weeks after ending all nutrients ?
It does no good during the growth stage ?

the only problem i ever had was measurements! It's a lot easier to "say" how many tbsp's you're gonna use. But then you start pouring... I'd start with 1tbsp/1gal for the first watering then up it from there.. but thats just me.

How old should the plant be? | Molasses sinply adds carbohydrates for your plant to use. It is a light nutrient but not much at all. proper feeding should start after a week or two of new plants starting up and getting roots. around the 2nd or 3rd set or leaves (past the little round water leaves that fall off) you can start light feeding. during veg i use my regular FoxFarm or GH nutes, and 1 TBSP of molasses per gallon. Once I go into flower, its 1-2tbsp per gallon until the last two weeks, when it is ONLY distilled water and 2-3 tbsp of molasses per gallon.
