Woah! You did NOT just scroll down into the comments and forget to subscribe, did ya? DID YA? 🙂 Didn't think so.
So what can I use for hydroponic grow , using a 9 gallon resivour and general hydroponics trio for nutrients… Any diy bud booster I can use ????? Btw love the videos 👍
Great information they're watching you since 2017 I wanted to experiment what do you think if I add sugars when you're Flushing and never gave sugars during flowering
I was wondering if I can use unsulfured blackstrap molasses powder in place of the sugar? If so, I was thinking mixing it in with a topsoil recipe and I was wondering if you had any insight on how much of the powder I should use?
Just fertilized my plant with 4 tablespoons of molasses,and a table spoon of zatarains root beer concentrate to two gallons of water ,fingers now crossed
Mine was planted in a 60 litre bag of high quality compost and I exposed the biggest roots and covered them in honey (this was still in veg). Now it's in its 2nd week of flower all I have gave her is water.. she's doing so well though with hundreds of flowers all over her 🙂 I was thinking maybe throw some bonemeal in there?
Hey I'm trying a experiment with some bag seeds. I use 4 table spoons of molasses and 4 table spoons of fish/seaweed fertilizer per gallon of water. I'm now mixing used coffee grounds and my weed ash to make a super carbon fertilizer. Anyone try this? It's 9/12/19 Will let you know how the plants grow and taste (if female)
First time grower here! Love Lex's world videos. Many tips and strategy's here. I am doing the molasses now in flower. In week five and man the collas are swelling up nicely. To the point where my fellow grower are shocked, that my plant looks so good! So far so good,as far as no bugs! The strain is space man, and is getting fat and frosty! Can't wait to give it a try!
Soooo… we're in full flowering phase–just fed the 4 girls yesterday Miracle Grow Tomato, Fruit & Veg. Want to start using Crosby's Cooking Molasses for next watering. The ratio of 1-2Tbls /gallon should be enough for the 4 plants per watering right? By the way thanks for your ratio–makes so much sense ✌🏻. I'm takin' it that we will stop with the MG and just stick to the molasses when watering each time–right? Please advise. Many thanks DUDE you ROCK straight out to the Milky Way🌌… Blessings to you and yours. P.
Have you heard of acidic infusion. In the vid i watched (from high times) he took grape big chew gum cooked it in vinegar the acid made the gum turn to foam and float on top he skimmed it off then used the liquid 1 tbl spoon to a gl of water(i think he added it to every feeding after flower) it made the buds smell and taste like grape.
There are many examples of symbiotic relationships between plants and fungus. The fungus feeds on some of the sugars in the plant roots and grows. It grows out much like roots, and helps to channel moisture and nutrients to the plants roots typically helping the plant more than harming it. Many species of plants simply will not flourish, some won't even survive without the presence of some beneficial fungus in soil. I thought the presence of sugars in the soil, encouraged the growth of some of the beneficial fungus that aid/facilitate plant growth.
Though molasses will feed soil microbes, it's unwise to use for that purpose as you want your soil microbes feeding on what is in the soil. When microbes interact with roots, the roots will exude sugars in exchange for elemental ions. If the soil is rich with molasses, that process will be slowed or hindered some. IMO, it's best to use molasses in your foliar spray as molasses is teaming with micros and trace elements.
Good advice man, ive been using it as a secret ingredient for about…..25yrs now . Lol . Ive even been so hard up it was the only thing i had and its worked better than youd think !! Now I dont usually watch YouTube videos on growing because they usually dont know what they are talking about , unfortunately. But this one was actually true AND useful .(.be carful not to go overboard because it will lead to other issues) , serious ones too. Good job bud

what about for hydro?
Or how about a bowl of cereal
How about agave?
Lex please research your content before making these shows…some info nice but you missed it on a few spots
I just crush Adderall and sprinkle it on the soil
How about maple syrup?
What kind of sugar are good for grow in an organic soil. Can you still use molasses?
Youtube has silenced this video on me, it won't play on android tv, every other video does but this one

Molasses works I didn't believe in it but now I do I used it all the time bigger buds for sure
Why the sunglasses inside. You in the mob or what.
which week do you start with melasse ?
You guys recommend using molasses during veg or just flush? Both?
Hi has anyone used MaxiCrop 1025 Soluble Powder
If so what are the results
i add just enough molasses to make the water a pissy apple juice color, or at least no darker than snapple tea
organic raw blue agave syrup too
Make sure to stop adding molasses during the last three weeks of flowering or you’ll have black ash. Use Mendocino honey.

Since I’ve started using molasses I’ve noticed bigger and frostier buds

Cant i just add sugar
throw it outside the pot better yet in garbage youll get as much or more benefit from it
Can't I just add white sugar, it's always in my cupboard
How about when to add it and how often?
