cheap soil...expert gardener and mg...both extended release....Ionic grow,and bloom,for hydro,superthrive,and molasses...I am not sure what I use should be recommended for anyone doing a standard grow tho...I induced extra growth time during flower,to see the results of plants in diff stages...and actually delayed my harvest to do this...on a normal grow,most people will tell you not to do what I did...BUT I WANTED BIGGER BUDS...^^^^:joint:

thanks for the pics :) they look good... how long do you figure they have left? looks like awhile for most of em...

any thoughts on why the one has the scraggily bit up at the top of the buds like that?

Sorry blueberry...missed ya somhow...no,I haven't harvested yet,best guess is 4 weeks....and it may well be 6,but I don't think so....Molasses is a sweetener...it's for me biscuits...j/k...It contains natural sugars that the plant uses for energy...It is supposed to give ya bigger buds,and smoother smoke

hey there bfq...thought you had left the building...lol...when a plant tries to reveg,it will get these cabbage looking leaves,which are only temporary,all new growth will look right...I may remove those for porn shots....Hey,if she was a real female,she would be getting her hair done,right?...lol

there are different opinions on dosage and frequency of use....depending on what you are growing with,and your technique,it may or may not be for you...some ppl swear by molasses though

just treat the molasses like any other nute and go into em slowly till you get a clue on how much your plants can take.

i went WAY over board with em once and turned my grow medium into a still... sugar becomes alcohol when it ferments :p

dead plant happened.

so much for, "hey, it's only molasses, what can it hurt?" ;)

I think it is all gonna fill in fine...just delayed my harvest by a few weeks...I knew that was gonna happen.the question is will I get what I want out of it...It sure looks good to me so far...it has gone exactly like I planned it.
