has anyone ever heard of using sugar mixed with the nutes. if son can you use it in hydro(ebb&flow)?
 
i use turbanado unrefined cane sugar in my soil. one tablespoon per gallon of water. DO NOT use white sugar.
 
i don't know. i just noticed you are hydro, i'm soil. it's supposed to help flower growth. fatter, thicker, tighter.
 
there are actual products that have sugar and other sythesizers(?) in it. one that i know of is called "sweet". it does attract ants. but i think they may make it for hydro.
 
Yeah, Sweet is mostly Cane Sugar and Citric Acid. Together they do some good things in your hydro reservoir. I don't know about soil. But some folks use molasses in both hydro and soil. There's a good thread on molasses here, search for it.

HTH :mrgreen:
 
I havent use sweet , but I think molasses is like carbo load.The molasses is backstrap molasses or unsulphured molasses only.But I wouldnt use it in hydro.the carbo load is carbohydrates for the flowering cycle.Molasses is too.In soil yes in hydro no. Peace
 
There was an article in high times, it claims that adding sugar for the final 6 weeks will add 20% to yr grows weight.
I wonder if I could do that in soil too?
 
man... i have been getting some nasty replies for saying that sugar works for me. i know it does, but i dont know exactly why
 
all i got was back talk, every body says sugar is the killer of hydro...and the shit works for me just fine, i want to see sumbodies shit that shows the injurious nature of sugar to plants in a water culture environment. no one, not even you bong guy, has been kind enough to tell why im full of shit instead of just telling me that im full of shit...so im still waiting
 
I use a ton of molasses in DWC, my plants are doing just fine(well, they were a few hours ago... we'll see when the lights come on!). Mind you, I don't just dump sugar in my reservoir, I'm using Carboload and Floranectar I believe.
 
'back talk' is a comment coming from someone who thinks they're always right and in control. You're neither, Jordan.

Hope your mould and bacteria likes the sugar feed. Your plants won't.
 
ay pussy, im tired of you alright? plain and simple. act smart somewhere else sucka, i dont care for your opinion. and it aint my fault u cant figure out how to utilize sugar in a hydro system without keeping other things in control, thats a personal problem you gotta deal with. so take that shit to jenny jones or sum
