We made some gingerbread cookie for a cookie swap. I got this left over and adding it a gallon of water and using it next time she needs water
Wanna use molasses?
It's really SIMPLE:
Preparation
1-2 tsp (5-10 ml) of unsulfured molasses per gallon of water. Brand does not matter, blackstrap or not doesn't matter. UNSULFURED matters.
Warm up the jar of molasses by sitting it in a big bowl of hot water for 10-15 minutes.
Before mixing up your nutes (if you're using them) pull a pint of the water per gallon aside and warm it up too.
Add one or two TEASPOONS (5-10 ml) of the warm molasses to the warm water. Mix until well dissolved.
Mix up your nutes, then add the molasses water.
Water as usual.
Mix up only enough solution for a single watering, as molasses water will grow bacteria and wild yeasts/fungi in short order -- if you really feel the urge to mix up a significant volume, keep it covered and refrigerated (under 40°F).
Usage
Use full strength anytime during flower.
Use every watering, every other watering or twice, doesn't MATTER.
Use in seedling/vegetative stages at 1/2 or less strength, adjust upwards if the babies like it.
Molasses feeds bacteria and fungi in soil, therefore will foster bacterial and fungal grow in your delicate hydro setups. NOT RECOMMENDED, OKAY?
Availability
Any major store that sells baking supplies
Horticultural molasses is available at home supply stores (check online, right?)
Feed stores have molasses too, cheap and good, almost always is blackstrap
