2. Slugs. Dig a hole near your plant and set a tupperware in it with about an inch of beer. Slugs love beer, and will get drunk and drown in it.
3. Pesticides... Im an indoor grower, so i have no idea for this question, sry.
4. Molasses. Yes, molasses is commonly used once plants have begun to flower. Whether it does anything or not is debated, but most people report positive results. 1 tbspn per gallon.

alright cool, i got some insecticidal soap for pests and i heard it works wonders, also no signs of slugs yet
also wondering about the plant food/fert differences, they contain all the same NPK but with a different word? I'v heard that plant food is suposed to be mixed in with water and givin every 4 or 5 days and iv heard that fert is to be givin once every 2-3 weeks, if they all contain the same NPK then whats the difference?
When should food/fert start being given to the plant, i think were 4-5 weeks in veg (the plants were kush clones)?
