Trying to think of easy ways to help increase yields..Indoor plant (blueberry kush) almost 4 weeks into flower, under 2, 26w and 1, 15w cfl bulbs and a red/blue LED box light. In Miracle Grow African Violet soil nothing else done but regular watering with brita filtered water.. small grow just looking for something simple.. shes only got about another 30 days before shes got to be harvested..
Is adding molasses useful and/or recommended in this situation? please post your thoughts!

adding molasses wont really help you all that much since your using miracle grow soil, but you might as well. there are some trace amounts of minerals that you plant will be able to absorb.

Alrighty cool, what about adding another handful of MG on top of the old stuff? It says it's 2 month formula..and its been about 2 months..

You can always dig up the first inch or two of soil and replace it with new soil.

I thought pot was not able to take in advanced carbs found in molasses. I always see people say increased production when sugar is added but im not sure how people add it.

well molasses really only helps organic soil's and fertilizer. things like miracle grow or any chemical or salt nute kill the beneficial and non-beneficial bacterial so the molasses doesn't help much, but your plant can still absorb small amounts of the trace elements.

Cool thanks everyone. Just wound up topping off the container shes in with a lil more MG. Didn't want to mess with molasses if it wasn't going to do much... Wound up adding a 42w cfl bulb to the mix though. We'll see what happens..hoping for it to really help out the lower buds..
