I am interested in adding some type of sugar nute to my plants while flowering. Came across an article about Botanicare Sweet in High Times and wanted to see if anyone has used it before. If so I would like to hear some feedback. Here is a link to the product. I am going to see if my local gardening center has it.

Hey dude. I use that along with liquid karma. I used it for veg and flower because that was what i was told to do. I probably should of read up on it to see if it should only be used to flower. Either way I don't have a basis for comparison because its my first grow. I can say though that my plants seemed to have grown very fast, and at 25 days flowering they resemble other plants (that I've seen in pics) that are well into 30's and 40's days of flowering. Maybe I just got lucky on the strain though.

how do you really know if anything improves your crop unless you do side by side controlled tests?

i use it. i swear by the sugars. it just sounds good.

I'm assuming that you are asking me this question.
If you read my post properly you would notice that I said that I had no basis for comparison, AND my good results so far could just be the strain I'm growing. However, I've seen pics of my strain at the same point in flowering and later, and mine seem to have denser colas. This is possibly on indication that this stuff helps, not a certainty. I was answering his question by saying, yes I use it, and at best it definitely couldn't hurt.
I never said it improves my crop for sure. You must be smoking some good shit.

I use it but I don't have anything to compare it to. I use the whole botanicare line and here is some nute schedules to help you know when to use what and how much to use

I don't start using til transition between vegging and flowering. Maybe next grow I'll start from begininng

I am a believer in Sweet...Havent compared it to Molasses yet....But the sugars are like Creatine for for your plant.

I used for about a week so far....on sickly plants....and the plants are hitting a spurt....sick leaves and all.

Good to know.

This is my third grow. I've used the bitanocare grow, base, flower nutes, but this is my first grow with adding the sweet and karma. So far I would say it has made a big difference! I've added it slowly, over some days so as not to burn them.. I think I'm around 800 ppm right now. But I think I am going to continue to use the sweet and karma from about third set of leaves from seed.
