So what are your opinions on sugars during the grow. What is the best way to get it? Something like bud candy or more natural like molasses or honey? When should I use? I hear some in veg is good but how much and when? If I go with honey or molasses, should I put it in their nute feedings or the straight h2o runs(talking soil) & how much should I use per gal? Are there any side effects I should be ready to take care of if I add sugar? I am trying to decide between Humbolt honey es and just straight local honey.

All this sweet talk,is making me want to go get some nesquick!

You should go with some molasses and get a straight budding additive for the end of flowering.

I think sugar only works if you have microbes in your soil. Like if you used Great White. The Microbes eat the sugar and do something with it. LOL Plants themselves do not uptake or use sugar via the root at all. Then again I'm no expert. So i'll stfu.

molassis feeds the soil, not the plant. IN turn it helps the plant. Id guess (im not sure) sugars do the same, the microbiology of the soil. just a guess.

I use floral nectar, got a free bottle, which has sugar cane and molassis.

Thanks for the replies. So yea I was under the same impression as you guys that it feeds the microbes in the soil. I use nutes, but no additives at this time so hmm. So I am seeing a lot of good things about molasses. Really I dont see anything bad written about sugars & cannabis on the net in general. But I cant find any good research either.
