Molasses or honey?

[Retodd]

Rough up the ground, sprinkle it around, and water or wait for rain if outdoors. No real measurement...lol

I use this molasses. https://www.amazon.com/Grandmas-Mola...es+unsulphured

However it is in a smaller container, and even with free shipping (i've got prime) it is cheaper from the Waltons. From what I can tell as i haven't grown without it seems to work well. Honey I would not recommend.

starramus. Why not honey. Doesn't honey and molasses do the same thing for the plants?

You can use Honey if you want. They have the same NPK ratio as Molasses. (1 0 5). The plants absorb molasses into their roots faster then honey. Also I think molasses is a bit cheaper then honey.

I grow in coco, and never use any sugar. I have no microbes to feed, and plants make sugar, they don't eat it. It's like feeding milk to a cow.

You wouldnt use it except in soil. It feeds the good stuff in the soil. And has lots of nutrients.

[Flockshot]

I agree. Soil growers do benefit by feeding the microbes when the plant stops feeding them. That is why I specified coco.

I use unsulphured mollass only in bloom too feed microbes in the soil then as they die off that's what the roots use. And it makes them buds sweet and big a half tea spoon per gallon once every other watering intill week 7 of bloom then stop works great for me
