The sugar is supposed to help buds become denser and bigger. Some people report yield increases of around 20%. The stuff acts as a mild fungicide too. I probably won't begin flowering my plants for 2-3 weeks, so I have plenty of time to decide whether I want to use the stuff myself. I believe you're supposed to use it 2 weeks before harvest.

It is full of potassium which makes bigger,juicer,buds,and the sugars are easily used as energy for the plant.

About the only kind here is Grandma's,but it really doesn't matter as long as it says unsulferd molasses.And I add 1tbs to a gallon,about 2 weeks before harvest I bump it up to 2tbs,it is very hard to overdo molasses but im sure it can be done.

Tbs is the abbreviation for tablespoon,and no it doesn't make them sweeter just fatter and sticker.

I seen on another thread that here in the UK we cant get molasses but the nearest thing the poster said was to use black treacle,i take it the same amout as you said should be used.
