My (rather unhappy) adventures in molasses
So I have been using Sweet for awhile but in my last res change switched over to molasses trying to stay in the "organic mode" and here is what i experienced: It sucks:cursing:
The ph rose a full point in about 4 hours and required about 5 times my normal amount of ph down to correct (0.5ml vs 3 ml)....daily at least and sometimes twice a day. The unstable ph by itself has led to growth slowing a fair amount. The stuff is sticky and messy and takes a while to dissolve correctly. It's a hassle to measure out and leaves a cruddy film all over the sides of my res and buckets. I also have to use a ton of it to get the ppms up.. I'll pull the stuff out tomorrow and do an (early) full res change and go back to my Sweet. I can't scientifically prove that the ph insanity is due to the molasses but I certainly didn't have any problems like that before I used it. I'll see what happens when I go back to the Sweet.
