Molasses and flushing, hand in hand???

edman2424 · 10-10-2007, 01:01 PM

ok quick one here guys that i just kind of thought about. all the posts that concern molasses say to use like 1 tblsp per gal every watering for the last 3 weeks or so right? well how does this tie into flushing the plant? is the molasses something that goes with the plain water in the flush or should it be used for the 3 weeks prior to the flush? just trying to confirm here guys any help appreciated, as always smoke on!!!

molassas is like an additive, it will sweeten the bud. it is carbohydrates or sumthin which make it tasty

From my understanding, you can use it at any time. I start about 1/2 way into flowering and use it with almost every watering. I flush with molasses and water but plain water for the last feeding (I just started the plain water for some reason)

from mine undersatanding too. I use honey in place of molasses tho it still contains starches to keep micorbs happy and it has other stuff molasses does'nt. and I use it in tea in veg and flower. I used to wonder if pure honey was good to use then I found out in here after I already used it

I'll try to find the thread. I stewed guano tea with worm poop with honey and plants really took a liking to it. oh ya I used it right through

thanks for the help guys. now honey is something i really never heard of using. what do you mean by you use it right? want to explain what the right method is that youre using??

I just want to chime in here.. I'm flushing (hydro) and have added mollasses to my flush and the plants seem to like it. I'm seeing more crystals. Next grow I'm going to start adding it earlier.
Peace,

I think what he meant was he uses right thru the whole duration of flowering.

like i said 2 tea or table cant remember spoons of molassas will fatten and sweeten the bud. it will make it swell. its a cheap version on the SWEET line.

I'm 2 weeks from harvest and was going to flush with just water until I read about molasses.

First off, I'm alittle confused on the term "flush". I've read where "flush" is used to mean:

Quote:

to completely soak the pot several times with plain water each time

AND

Quote:

use plain water as you would normally feed/water, but every time you would have fed/watered them.

I made great improvements with this second grow and I want to continue doing so.

i think flush one is for build ups, and flush two is the flush we talkin bout, no feeding for the last two weeks just normal water (and like this thread is a bout) and molassas. but let your pot dry almost compleatly before harvest, will take 2-5 days off drying.
