so i'm currently finishing off a plant that i've vegged for about 5 months and next time round i want a crop with all of the nutrients to give the best bud production that is capable. i know that nutrients arent a magic potion that will give me big buds like that, but my experience is getting better and i've learned from lots of mistakes... so next time round i'm certain i'll have a crop from start to finish with no problems showing up once if i try hard enough!

at the moment i am using hesi TNT complex with supervit, superthrive and plant magic for veg. in flowering i am using biobloom with topmax and continue using hesi up until the 2nd week.

next time round i am certain i will be using epsom salts for my grow which are always handy, and of course molasses. firstly, can anyone tell me if molasses helps with the yield or not? is it worth getting?

can anybody think of any other products that will help my buds fatten up to their full potential? it doesnt need to be anything fancy because sometimes less is more!

*EDIT*
another thing is that i switched from plagron light mix to biobizz lightmix.. im starting to think plagron was better. anyone got their own opinion on what soil they think is better out of the two?

+rep!

molasses does NOT increase yield by 25% :wall:
it is used primarily to add carbs and feed the microherd in soil. if the op doesn't have the grow dialed in yet or is experimenting with a new nute line there's no point in adding all kinds of shit. he's not going to be able to distinguish what's doing what. my advice to the op is to keep it simple and only change one thing at a time.

surely it'll help if i use in the last 4 weeks? does it increase yield at all?

molasses should help the yield i couldnt say how much though..everythings gotta be right its not like u add molasses and bammm u get all this bud on your plant all of a sudden lol..i would say get a good base nutrient (ill recommend a couple) General Hydroponics Flora Series micro, grow, bloom..Bonticare Pro Blend Grow and Bloom..those are the base nutrients that i could recommend. For additives and bloom boosters i would recommend SEAPLEX-seaweed complex, HUVEGA-natural magnesium (great for flower) and HUMEGA-natural organic soil conditoner..those are from Bonticare's organic line Organicare...for boosters i would recommend bud blood, big budz powder, carbo load, and overdrive from Advanced Nutrients..every single plant i grow see's all of those nutrients at some point of there life

there's not a magical bullet to get fat juicy buds. give the plants what they want and you will increase your yeilds. a pro grower using crap nutes will always outgrow a noob using snake oils because the pro grower understands why he is giving product x and when to do it. molasses will technically help the grow, but is certainly not going to make or break it. it's not used for increasing yields and anyone who says it is has no idea what the hell they're talking about. molasses feeds the microherd, adds micronutrients and also acts as a chelation agent which basically makes stuff more available to the plant, which in turn "could" increase yields. if you add it expecting fatter buds you will be disappointed.
