Molasses question

[NCDude]

Like many of us, I use Molasses on my girls, a 'goop', table spoon to a two gallon bucket when I water..NOW, I'm thinking about using dried molasses in the soil. Does anyone use it? How much?

Thanks

Re: Molasses question...

I still think it is mixed in water. I would be hesitant to mix it in the soil.

I s the stuff you speak of called "strapped" by chance.

Use molasses same way you do, seems to work fine. Think you can control the dosage better this way. Are you using unsulfured black strap molasses ? Guess the final thought is.....why change what works for you ? Maybe use one method on one plant and another on a second plant, then compare during the growth of the plant. Some thoughts on it anyway. Good luck and good grow`n.

Dried molasses is just bits of grain sprayed with molasses and dried.

it is easy to broadcast onto to a field without mixing in water,

so a square footage/depth of application is then simply watered-in as needed.

Unless you are farming on an agricultural scale,

I would stick with the pure stuff mixed with water.
