I see people use fruit juice, or pop, table sugar?

putting molasses in your water during the last 6 weeks of flowering and youll get big buds.

In the last six weeks or throughout the flowering cycle. No benifit in veg. I have been using molasis 2nd time now seems to really help the buds plump up and mine have been nice and sweet. :rastasmoke:

do you continue using it even during the flushing 1/2 weeks before harvest?

This is sounding like someone is going to over indulge on the sugars. It does help immensely, but, it also if overdone can injure. Use with predjudice.

The simpler the sugar, the better the result. I give so little any more I don't bother to flush. Makes the buds hard and dense.

If you think about it what you are doing is providing the power for the plant to grow without it first having to manufacture the sugars from root uptake. It is there and readily available, thus the simple sugars.

When flushing use ph'ed water only "no neuts". The reason you flush is to clear out the neauts that are left. Hope this helps. :rasta:

Does that mean I should hold off on adding molasses, chocolate chips, caramel and hot fudge to the soil?

can you put other natural sugars in it like honey, maple syrup, or maple sap?
