A buddy of mine bought some molasses from the grocery store...he was wanting to know ratio of water to molasses. I use GH floralicious and it is 1-2 tsp per gallon. Id image it would be much less considering this is pure and GH probably waters this stuff down.

I do a tablespoon per liter every other watering for the entire grow. It really stimulates the microbiology and breaks down the nutrients into usable forms for the plant.

I appreciate all the answers...Looks like 1 tbsp per gallon will do the trick....possibly a half tbsp early flower? I will make sure he has the unsulfured stuff.

sounds good
when u mix it warm up a cup of water then add mollases so it will mix good then add rest of gallon since it is so thick and if u r using epson salt add to warm water to so it will dissolve then use when cool

Not mollasses but another positive additive I use as a precautionary (especially me being a MG user) is an occasional teaspoon of epson salt for a balance, also calcium to balance Ph

I start using it about three weeks into grow and continue to use it till the end of the grow. I use just plain water to flush last week.

molasses is really gentle, its hard to overdue it. I have never measured a dose and it works great for me! just eye out about a tblspn or 2 and your good to go!

Just be careful not to use too much and attract bad soil beasties, fly's etc.
