Hey all- got a real good question... almost a Poll of sorts.

What do you use in soil to really harden and fatten-up your buds? We switched to soil from hydro- and ever since, the buds 'stall-out" in week 5 or 6... and no matter how dense they seem at harvest, they turn light and fluffy when dried! NEVER had this problem before- and are totally stumped by this one!

ANY help or suggestions appreciated!!

Some say Molasses, but you already knew that.

I hope others chime in because I'd like to know as well.

well- We use Promix and organic nutes--flora Nova--we also include Humbolt honey ES.. molasses based ... I add extra PK in week 5+

We grow under 2 1000w lights, temps now a 78f lights on 76f lights off... Humidity os around 60%- but a lot of air movement!

Ps:it fixes foxtails too! .....if u catch it early enough cuz it requires a 1 week flush before harvest. Pumps up the resin too, awesome product.

You have to watch out though. A lot of times you get more weight and density at the cost of potency. The products I listed above will stop upward growth and promote fattening of buds, but the trichome production is reported by a few to stop the moment you feed them to the plant.

MOAB. But end density depends on a bunch of factors... genetics, light spectrum, curing process...
