  | Yeah it's pseudo hydroponics...just an underwater pump on a timer to water my hempys once a day (so I don't have to). I mixed two tablespoons with 18 gallons of water it doesn't seem too gooey. I hope it works, I think it will. At worst it'll clog a $12 pump | ||

2 tablespoons in 18 gallons is hardly noticable.  | |||

| in my exp molasses is very easy to dissolve in water. ive never had to heat either up... but the shit that grows in the water, which has got to be some type of bacteria may be what clogs up everyones works. just keep an eye o ut, if you see funk starting to happen hit it with some hydrogen peroxide. | ||

| I use molasses (1 Tbs/gallon), but I use it in an organic tea and it's brewed into the tea and is completely in solution by the time it's administered to my soil plants. No goo anywhere (just shit tea I suppose).  \m/ | ||

so with teas, i agree you should go over 1 tsp. ive even made teas before where i saw all the foamy substance wear off, added some more molasses, and it came back in a few hours. | |||
