All this molasses discussion prompted me to order some, should be here later in the week. I hope it works. One set of plants is at 26 days flower, the other at 46. I figure worst case, I won't be able to notice any difference. Best case, who knows. I'm rollin' those dice!
yeah, it doesn't hurt what so ever! I can tell you that the difference between my buds before I started using molasses and after I started using it is like night and day. I will never ever NOT use it again. It should be part of the norm schedule of growing. (IMHO) I wish that I knew or had read about it sooner. I actually got the idea from reading Stinky's post. She knows her shit.
Stinky- Thanks a lot.. It is sick! I am amazed but enjoying watching it grow by the hour it seems. I Also will never grow again without topping.- then topping again. The Veg stage on her took awhile, but was well worth it in the end. She was soooo healthy from the get go. I burned her a bit last feeding screwing something up but that is the first time in awhile on any plant and her first bit of pain.
Thanks guys, I will be updating with more pics etc until the final product so let's stay tuned because I am just as curious as all of you what she will yield.
I am keeping a close eye on her trichomes because after growing for awhile, I listen to my plants and she is showing signs of being closer to chop time than her original schedule. We will see though.
Until later,
Elway
mollases never hurt me either. as far as yeild?? idk but sweet smelling and tasting? the answer is yes. i can taste a little diff in the cured buds compaired to not using them but the diff is my first ones were outdoors and the new ones(w/mollases) indoors. i think i will cut them off at the last fertilization a week before they are harvested.
It has increased my yield quite a bit actually. It has increased my weight with stickier, denser buds. If I could show you the difference, I think you would be as shocked as I was. To me, in my situation, it was a BIG difference.
I wouldn't recommend trying it, as I have never grown outdoors, but the difference indoors with and without it is great IMHO anyway.
I actually use "sweet" and molasses together for my flowering regimen. It seems to work for me. well.
good luck and stay posted. I will be giving an update later today with photos as well.
Hey guys it's funny that I just found out that the method of "topping" I did on her, (my little experiment) has already been named. FIM'ing!! I just thought it was normal topping? How funny. Well as you can see by her 6 colas and tons of branch growth, that it works!
I never knew what the term meant until someone just asked on another post.
I feel uninformed and dumb now! J/K
hahaha
Me too. You get WAY more bang for your buck by combining the two.Quote:

Elway, At one point in the flowering process do you begin adding the molasses? For the life of me I didn't know that plants would metabolize the carbohydrates. I'm glad you are enjoying watching her mature. From the looks of it, you have a comfortable seat from which to watch with the added benefit of doing two things at once!!!
FF- hmmm not quite sure I am getting you here..Quote:

Some people begin using it from the beginning of a nute schedule in the veg stage. I know that my hydro store guy does. I don't though. I just wait until flowering. As you can see with no adverse effects on yield.
good luck,
