I want to start using Blackstrap molasses\NEED HELP

[prodotype]

I found a mix ratio of 1 Gallon water (warm) and 1 TSP blackstrap molasses.
Can anyone tell me if this is a good recipe?, and when i can start feeding my soil and my plants this mixture. Thanks everyone

you can start with that on day 1

1 tsp should be good, i found out thru trial and error that 1 table spoon is too much...

heat up a pot of water to melt molasses in first...

Not really necessary until they are flowering. I use 1-2 tablespoons per gallon of water. Here is a good thread to read on molasses.

Molasses for stickier buds?

it wont hurt them to give it before flowering... i used small amounts without a problem and then i read to use 1 tablespoon, but when i did that my rez got super super foamy and after a few days went rotten... was not easy getting things clean after wards...

i would say molasses like ANY nutrient/additive is best used in moderation...

if you are hand watering rather than running a drip or flood system then 1-2 tablespoons would prob be fine

there are some benefits to using mollasas in veg but i think very small amounts are the best way to do it, first the sugars in it will feed your microlife and help with all your plants processes, this doesnt matter much in non organics though so to some it doesnt apply, also if your using a R/O filter it can help to add beneficial trace elements to your water regiment, i've found that some but not all plants like a little cal/mag in veg and will become adult plants a little faster when used.

i think this is just because of healthier root structure but i could be wrong

p.s hogdaddy not trying to contradict you i love what you do man
