I found this brand of "Unsulphured" Molasses in my pantry today and was wondering if it could have any applications for growing. I have a beatiful blueberry lady flowering atm, and would like to know if I can add this to its watering regiment.

You can use molasses during the final 2 weeks. You understand that it's pretty much only for the flowering phase, right? Your buds will swell up by as much as 20%.

Now i'm a bit conflicted. One of you says use anytime, and another says only during the last 2 weeks. I have been flowering for about 2 weeks now, so here it is. Should I start with the Molasses now, or wait till they're almost done flowering?

I got the same stuff I put 1 TBL and about once every two week I get in a giving mood and use 1.5, I think they love me more for the treat!

I use it all during flowering. Every other feeding. My only advice is to stick to 1 Tbs/gal. It is easy to slop a little extra in there, because if a little is good more is better right? Not true - the sticky goodness will mess with the soil - clog it up. A little goes a long ways.

Sorry I wasn't more clear, you can use molasses during the entire flowering phase, all the way through harvest(final 2 weeks).

I use 2 tblspns. per gallon at every feeding. Never noticed any negitive reults. Only fat dense nugz with big stems. Don't tell anyone but I try to get heavier stems. Throw them in my shit bags. Don't hate the player, Hate the game.

That samwe brand is the recommended mollases type..that same bottle you have,I have it.Use 1 tablespoon per gallon of WARM or HOT water..this will help it dissolve better and more evenly...use this "sugar water" throught the ENTIRE flowering,and you can even use it during the final flushing phase.It feeds the microorganisms ,which in turn help break down nutrients and makes them more available to the roots.Its not recomenned for hydroponic,just soil and soilless mediums...use mollases with organics for OPTIMAL RESULTS....

I bought the one shown at the beginning of this thread, but I also saw one that said "Robust" on the label. What is the difference? I bought both.
