Molasses?

[Indigoism]

Hey guys sorry for asking this I know it will be on the forum somewhere but I couldn't find anything.

I am about to go out and get some supplies for my second grow and was reading about molasses and how it benefits flowering, I just want to know what exacly I should buy and how much per gal/L should I use on an autoflower thats 2-3 weeks into flower and where would I be likely to find the stuff?

I appreciate any help thanks in advance.

I know some growers use brown sugar (which contains molasses). I believe LDERF (grow pot cheaply) uses two table spoons per half gallon.

Thank you so much for replying, Brown sugar?! That is perfect I have some already, going to look it up now just got some new nutes so the plant is going to be happy!

Molasses contains minerals and simple sugars that feed soil microbes, which feed the plant (ideally). Brown sugar only contains trace amounts of molasses - You will need either soft dark muscovado sugar or a jar of actual molasses, otherwise you are just adding sugar to your plant food. Locally-sourced, unfiltered honey would be better for that purpose, as it comes directly from flowers in the first place (honey is used in some bloom-boosters).

If you go molasses, make sure its unsulfured

I can't thank you enough, cheers for clearing this up, I found some in my local grocery store catalogue so I will check it out ASAP, it seems very worth it!
