adding sugur to your water!!!

[kirky2k4]

i hear you can add sugur to you water whilst growing for a better taste

is this true???

how much do you add???

 

[BayAreaBrotha]

Use Blackstrap Molasses. Not only will it provide your plants with the sugar you want to add but it also has nutrients that your plant can use. I have had very positive results from using it and it is organic! 1 tbsp per gallon

Does table sugar work ?
If so how much do you use ?

 

[O4aUsErNaMe]

any sugar will work but it is not the most optimal of the sugars to use,
as suggested use molasses it puts the trace elements in the soil as well.

dont know never used it,but at a guess a tablespoon per gallon would be ok.

why dont you just go and buy some molasses its dirt cheap and much better and will give better results..

 

[bk4u4ever]

where do u get mollasses and what is it?

any good pet store will have it,or maybe even the local garden center.

it is a by product left over from the extraction of sugar from sugar cane or beetroot.
this equates to it being pure plant energy in a bottle.
use it a 2 tablespoons per gallon.

No one has said if you use it during veg, flower, or both... I'm really curious about this too.

Thanks in advance.

just dont use it in hydro, or you will kill your plants. molasses only works if your soil growing
