i use sweet too, it costs about $20 at the hydro store. it works really well too as a substitute for molasses - i use it during the last few weeks then flush with it too.

OK so let me get this straight, I add 1 tablespoon per gallon, WITH the nutes? I water with distilled water only, than nutes, and back and forth like that, so just add molasses in with nutes and continue my feeding schedule? Thanks!

yep, i use a big 5 gallon bucket and stir up a nice mixture of 5 different nutes including molasses. its good that you alternate with nutes/water, that will prevent them from locking up. start with 1tbs/gallon and work up to 2tbs/gallon, or just stay with 1 - thats what i do.

Somebody in another thread said you can use dr. pepper instead of molasses in hydro setups. Can anybody back this rumor? I'm thinking of using it in a deep water culture (bubbleponic-GRANDE air pump and bubble discs). I use H202 and flush weekly so mold shouldn't be an issue. Can I get away with molasses or would be looking at a hot tub full of shampoo in a few minutes?

Thanks for clearing that up for me,i never could remember how far i could push the molasses but i do remember it giving good results.

Question.

Do you know if the sucess rate with molasses is because of the massive potassium content or if it's because the natural sugars,or a combination of both.
