i guess it is all a personal opinion. i know there are a lot of strains that i wouldn't want any sweeteners added too.

It may help the plant be healthy but it does not change the flavor of the weed.

They are not lying, but they are skirting the truth.

Molasses doesn't change the taste of weed, it gives it simple sugars and carb's that are easy for the plant to digest.

Will it improve your grow? Sure. Will it enhance the taste? Doubtful.

By the way, what does that cost??

Look up all the posts concerning molasses. No one believes it changes the taste of the plant. Molasses has a STRONG flavor ( I personally love it!), and yet, no change.

it all depends on the experience.

ive had great experiences with carbs and strongly recommend them

I've also read quite a bit of statements on this forum that sound like people pull them from their ass. Just goes to show you can't believe everything you read on the internet.

Growing is all up to the grower there are not set rules in stone saying you must do this and can't do that. experiment, try things, learn thing.

I also have used carbs extensively, like molasses.

I do believe in experimenting as well, but paying for high priced sugar waters aren't one of them. There's a ton of hype out there all claiming to have some secret ingredient, but in the end the tried and true ways always come out on top.

It's a great marketing trick for inexperienced growers since there are tons entering this hobby in the past few years.

GH's floranectar specifically advertises this, but most experienced growers know that the taste/smell of these carb additives do NOT transfer over.

They might bring out a better aroma in your resulting flowers, but that's based on the genetics of the strain. But you won't get a Pineapple or fruit flavor.

Bingo!! You get a cookie...

You can finish with molasses, maple, or cane syrup but in the end your weed will taste the same all else being equal....

Ok so botanicare are a bunch of liars. Heres a statement that comes streight from a sweet brochure: Sweet all-natural carbohydrate and mineral supplement is scientificly formulated with carbohydrates, organic acids, viatamins, amino acids and SELECTED BIOACTIVE ESTERS for flavor and aroma enhancement. ESTERS are formed by linking organic acids and alcohols. Esters act as flavor and aroma enhancers in plant products. Sweet contains contains esters derived from natural sources.

So thats an example of skirting the truth? They want to fool growers into buying this stuff?
