why kool-aid and molasses? does that help the plant at all during veg?

__________________

from what i understand the molasses help during flower but i figure it wont hurt starting now. the koolaid is experimental. i wanna "naturally" change the color of da plant, im going on the same principle of why flamingos turn pink. plus kool-aid can be/is good for humans. why not plants? really an experimental grow all around. jus getting my preverbial feet wet. thnx 4 the inquiry. i can mail pics from my phone.

I suggest U check this out
Food Coloring Experiment

fdd and btt gave their buds color too, check out the outcome

yea i saw that. i was impressed, but i wanted to try another route that gave the plant color from the beginning. or maybe i should use food coloring in place of the kool-aid? what do u think?

I'd probably go with the kool-aid, they said the food coloring gave the weed a bad taste..that was something I actually wanted to try, but I think I'll just watch yours and see how they turn out before I experiment with my plants.

and males and females both have 3, 5, 7 bladed leaves.
every plant I have grown started off by having 1 blade on each leaf, then as the next ones grew in they came with 3 per leaf, the next ones had 5, the next ones had 7, and they kept increasing by 2 till it got to 11 on both male and females.

I know that the healthier the plant the more blades per leaf so thats a really good way to judge how well its being taken care of.

what U should do for pix is email them to yourself, then use a free picture hosting site like photobucket.com to host the files. they have free private accounts and you have unlimited storage space. plus there is a lot more benefits but U have to see it to believe it.

Yeh man it would be a shame if they came out nice and colored, and we couldnt see the pictures : (

But hey I wouldnt add the small koolaid packets strait, you need to add about a cup or two of sugar. Mix the koolaid and the sugar up. then add a bit to your solution, strait kool-aid without sugar is bitter, and I dont think you would like the taste : )

Goodluck buddy, hope everything goes well

peace to all. thanks for the advice, and my girl is growing her second set of 7 bladed leafs! rhe has 7 sets, 14 big leafs, and 4 leaves in between each branch n stem so bout 70 total give or take. about that sugar issue, i thought about it b4 n came up wit the same idea but was enlightened by a post on here. molasses is sweet b/c it has sugar in it, hell it is sugar. now since ima start feeding wit that on sunday thus taking the place of regular granulated sugar which imo...
