To all the peeps that like their molasses, could you please let me know If it's to late to start using them or if it would be worth it.
I'm about 2 weeks from harvest and will use the uk equivalent which would be some good old black treacle ( lyles !!! ) would that stuff do the job??

and I had a good idea so that I can always be a cfl grower!!! If I purchase these two 2700k bulbs I can just swap these over when I want to flower for future grows and vice versa. They are the same as I have now just the red spec.
They state that they kick out 19500 lumens which I think is pretty impressive, and if you could see for yourself they really do kick out alot of light.
CFL's FTW !!!!!!!

Those look great tam, plenty of filling out to do yet but they're going to be good
Holland & Barrett have meridian pure blackstrap molasses...... 1.65 a jar (thanks to Del for that info!) but as you say Treacle is our UK equivalent. Use it tam, I do every grow now

Nice tam, very, very nice mate still a long way from finishing, they're going to pack it on yet! As I said from the beginning the Nirvana AK48 is a good yielding strain, I always got a good solid dry OZ from mine and they were not big plants at all, how much you hoping for? Sh*t tam, they must have a good 3 weeks left judging from those pics so best is yet to come :-
Introduce the molasses/treacle, it can only help bulk them up, they love a bit of carbo.
