Hell, the only negative thing ive heard about molasses or any concentrated sugar load is when growers foliar feed. (As in spraying leaves with a concentration)

Foliage feeding leads to sticky leaves, and insect problems. Soil feeding is chill as far as I know.

What do you have to loose? If anything you have everything to gain by giving them some extra sugar imo.

It's certainly changed the size and appearance of my buds. I'm a first time molasses user and will be using it from here on out, starting pretty much day one of month two when budding @1TB per gallon. Dose varies w/growers.

im around 2 weeks to cut as well. i have been using molases for most of my flowering. rotating molases, flower nutes, straight water. hittin it with a flush in a day or 2 when it needs watering. and one more .5 stength molases after that. its my first grow so as to taste and stuff i cant say, but my buds are pretty fat. if it changes taste id say it will probably be sweeter.

You can use epsom salts 1 tsp per gallon, the molasses in my opinion makes the overall taste a bit more floral, or fruity. I generally cut off everything in the last two weeks to that I get the most natural taste out of the bud. but that is my opinion.

Epsom salts for fattening buds? That's a first. Best check yourself on this idea.
IF molasses messes w/the taste, it's in a + way, IMHO.

magnesium is the core ingredient in molasses, sugar increases production of chloryphl, which i don't think I want in my finished product, I notice leafier finish.
if you are looking to fatten buds Co2 is a good way. prayer candles are close to 1$
and provide enough for about one plant.. ie. 4 plants should have 6 candles
