since I posted that previous '1 tablespoon/gallon- suggestion, I have read a few threads, where the growers were dosing much heavier, like 3-4 tablespoons per gallon, and much more often ... I haven't dosed that heavily yet, so I won't recommend one way or the other, until I try it myself ... something for me to research further... one thing I neglected to mention, avoid any spillage ! ... it will really attract the bugs, they have sweet-tooths

BlueBear posted an excellent molasses thread awhile back, here it is: http://boards.cannabis.com/organic-g...weeteners.html
lots of good reading there ...
... also, remember that chlorinated water will kill all those beneficial organisms you are trying to feed with the molasses, so plain water, only ! ... :jointsmile:

Reaper.. i use a product called Plant Success(Mycorrhizal Fungi). Would chlorinated water kill them as well?.. I TRY and let my water sit for a few days.. but sometimes forget :stoned:.

I have been using Fox Farms' 'Happy Frog Soil Amendment', which has a 'mychorrizial' (mispelled, probably), additive, I love the stuff ... I guess its basically the rotted bark, etc., found at the foot of trees, or something :wtf: ... it does state on the bag, that it has a shelf-life, being a living organism ... I should think chlorine would be harmful to that, as well ... my city water here is highly chlorinated, and high-acid pH, (my Reverse-Osmosis filters make it even more acidic, since it also removes calcium) ... :smokin:

You get a glass of water at my house and thats all you can smell...
Thanks.

I find collecting rain water is a much easier solution to dealing with chlorinated tap water.

oh yeah, rainwater is great ! (I think) ... I have always been told it is the same as distilled water, but I'm not so sure about that ... after all, it will pick up pollutants, and minerals, etc., on the way down (remember Canada's 'acid rain' years ago ?)... I wonder the pH, I should have tested it yesterday ... (we got rain here yesterday, first in about 3 months) ... :jointsmile:

Rain water will carry dissolved gases that go into equilibrium with Nitric and Sulfuric acids, the ratios dependent upon the SOURCE of the pollution near where the storm system originated- whehter it is primarily auto exhuast or coal burning industry.
You can use it, but test the pH first and adjust if you need to.
