I used molasses ( 1 tablas per gal of water) the last time I watered. I am on day 45 of flowering. What should I do? Should I start flushing with plain water only and how much each time? Can I used the molasses mixed water until I CUT HER DOWN OR SHOULD i STOP AT A CERTAIN POINT. ANY ADVICE WILL HELP? THANKS
oh sorry for the caps |

Unless you want to smoke it, don't feed it to your plant during flush is my motto. That applies to chemicals, ferts, and molasses. So I stop with the molasses during the flush.

It depends on how im feeling weather i use molasses or not,when i do use molasses in a grow i feed the plants right up until their last watering,im not a proponent of flushing weed as i cant see any real scientific reason to do so,nor is there any proof posted anywhere on the internet that flushing is a needed pratice,most information regarding this pratice traces back to hydro fertilizer companies who just so happen to sell expensive products for flushing.
Ive done a few roughly handled experiments using flushed & non flushed plants with other smokers as the test subjects,i tried my best to make sure that the people smoking had no information that could bias their feedback comments,not one person could point out any differences between flushed & non flushed so i gave up flushing & filed it away as a wives tale. Anyhow if your the type who wants to be better safe then sorry then stop using molasses,i cant taste any differences in buds grown with molasses but ive seen how the buds absorb the molasses & hold it within the bud after harvest.

A side-by-side taste test with molasses would be very interesting. |

Ive used Sucanat (during my flush period), which is grainy like normal sugar but Sucanat is non-refined so the molasses hasn't been removed from it. I used it during past grows (Im not growing for another 8 months) and it worked out great. It didnt hurt the smoke, it gave my Silver Haze a slight caramel flavor when smoked...mmmm. The reason I used it during flushing is the plant needs energy for the last 2 weeks to keep its "fruits" getting bigger.
