Can anyone give me information in regards to using molasis in addition to Fox Farm Tiger Bloom.

My plants are potted and are just starting to flower.
Should I use Molasis? Or just the Tiger Bloom? And if yes,...how much?

Please advise...I can't really norrow it down in researchiing the threads.

Many thanks....

I don't know if I'd use mollasses outdoors. It will attract bugs.

I use all the fox farm trio nutes and I was told to use one tablespoon to one gallon water, and I have tried feeding it with my nutes but have switched to using the molasses on the plain water days instead. There is Calcium and other good things like ready available sugars in it and with my water I can use the help...:thumbsup:

I use molassas outdoors.1 ounce per 5 gallon water.It does not attract bugs...It is so diluted with water that it is not sweet anymore..so the bugs are not attracted.I can't find large containers though!

I am using Molasses for my outdoor plants and it works great. Make sure you use Blackstrap Molasses... and use 1 tbsp per gallon in vegitative stage and 1 1/2 - 2 tbsp per gallon in flowering. It works great when mixing up with guano in a tea.

Never use molasses in hydroponics... or if you do use a very very little amount per gallon.

I can find mine at my local grocery store... but its a pretty big grocery store. I look in the aisle with molasses and find molasses that literally says Blackstrap on it. I looked on the back and it showed nutrients such as Calcium, Magnesium, and Potassium which are all good things to give your plants

I have heard that molasses will also provide sugars to feed the beneficial bacteria in the soil, boosting their productivity.

Molasses is awesome, i use Grandmas Molasses and Tiger Bloom also. I know i could use more but the crap isn't cheap. My buds are getting bigger and stickier every day. Throw some Buddswell bat guano into the mix if you can
