    Molasses confusion - US messurements

    Okay so the plan is to add organic unsulfured molasses, and the US dominates cannabis info resulting in US messurements. Is everything bigger in USA? Google tells me a tablespoon is about 15ml, but the biggest spoon I can find in my house is about 8ml and it gets my head spinning. How many ml would you guys recomend per gal/litre?

    With English measurements a tablespoon is a specific measurement of volume. Just use two of the spoons that you say are largest. that should work.
    It's not how crazy I am, but how much I enjoy it that makes me dangerous.

      Okay but today I read about and watched youtube videos of people using it in both fases. Would it work to give less in veg?

      It's hard to say all depends on the cal and Meg. Amounts I know people who put used coffee grounds in the soil for extra nitrogen. So thers always an alternative to pricy nuts but unless u can caluculate the correct amounts I personaly wouldn't unless u were in a pinch lol

    Howdy Xaliuz, to convert from the measurement of teaspoons and Tablespoons (a Tablespoon is three teaspoons), use 5 ml for one teaspoon, 15 ml for one Tablespoon, and 30 ml for one ounce. When I used the un-sulphured molasses, I added 1/2 teaspoon per gallon from the grow throughout the bloom. It helped out with plant development, but in a hydroponic system it also feeds things that You do not want growing so maintaining well aerated water and keeping the temperature below 70 degrees F is necessary. I have changed to using different supplements (GH Floralicious Plus and FloraNector) instead of the molasses because they have other beneficial things in they and have done very well for me.
    Good luck with Your grow.
    Smoke weed,.....grow peace!

      Cheers, tokes & thanks DW2! Was so excited by your response I grabbed a pen, wrote it down and added the molasses without thanking you. Will look into those supplements, they're also inced in the notebook, but think I'm gonna try a round without failing before expanding equipment wise
