How To Use Grandma's Original Unsulphured Molasses

how much of this do i put in a gallon of water and when do i start using it and how often do i give it to the plants?

1 tsp to 1 tbsp per gallon, can be used in all growth stages. Grandma's isn't blackstrap molasses, though. Blackstrap (like Plantation Blackstrap) has a lot more potassium, minerals.

As Nullis has mentioned, I use 1 TBSP per gallon used when I water between feedings.

can i use the grandma's kind ?

Only use it in soil. It feeds the microbes. Sometimes using molasses will create a crust at the surface of the soil. Before you water be sure to break up the surface of the soil.

Yuk..............

I have heard it is great (blackstrap).Tried on early grows. Can not say if it helped. But since I stopped using it, I have not had a single gnat in my tent. Just me but true...

so the Grandma's Original Unsulphured Molasses is not blackstrap? and it cant be use or can it ? which is better to feed it during the last 2 week of flowering or just thought the whole flowering stage ?

Black strap is best..you can use grandmas 1 tbsp per gal and you can use it every watering up to harvest, but i would stop a week before

yes, use Grandmas... you are fine.......

Ok here are the different stages of molasses being made. From this you can determine what you think is best by preference .

Purest form of the sugarcane process is light molasses

• Light molasses is made from the first boiling of the cane or beet juice.

Second purest form of the sugarcane process is dark molasses

• Dark molasses comes from the second boiling of the cane or beet juice.

Third purest form of the sugarcane process is blackstrap Molasses

• Blackstrap Molasses is made from the third and final boiling of the molasses.

Usulphured vs. Sulphured Molasses
Sulphured molasses is molasses that has been treated with sulphur dioxide as a preservative. However, since the sulphuring process can leave the molasses with a strong pronounced chemical flavor and is less sweet.

Or you could just use pure sugarcane juice......Experiment
