Loving it...been growing really well....she's tall and lanky and starting to budders...lol...no anything, but I want to add some morbloom to see if it will make a difference...love me some back alley kush...main...she is definitely an awesome plant to grow.
When should I add molasses or sugar to the grow to affect flower growth and/or aroma? I usually harvest October 10th to the 20th to get that half amber half milky thrichrome build. I average 1-2 lbs in 30 gallon pots.
the plant doesn't use carbs like that, if i recall. it won't chang the test of th ebud if it's not part of those catabolic processses (anabolic? whichever.. both.. lol)
but, molasses has K and minerals and all sorts of goodies the plant can use. it's an excellent thing to use, imo. grandma's blacstrap organic i think. maybe a tbsp/gallon?
i gave milk and molases alternating with my fertilizer when i used soil (may use soil again soon). my ferts at that time had crap for Ca.
Holy shit shes sooo big and healthy. Do you have any tips how to make plants grow to this size ? And are you really watering just with water ? no added nutrients ?
@Tendy,
Yes and no. I have added soluble nutrients twice around Weeks 15 and17, but she didn't need it and some leaves curled a little downwards and yellowed out after a week. The only thing I added was 1 tbsp Alaska Fish Fertilizer and 2 tbsp fox farms big bloom per gallon. I probably gave it a gallon of juice and 2 gallons water each time. That's it. The soil was prepared last year in August with, including but not limited to, bone meal, blood meal, molasses, worm castings, mulch, compost, fish fertilizer. The plant officially started on 12/9/19. Then I added coffee grinds after I brewed some coffee beans 3x in February and also some FFOF soil (3 gallons worth) in April. Drop ocassional egg shells, banana peels. I mulched around late May when the heat begins to pick up more consistently and added fruit puree when watering it afterwards once.
What makes the difference is the 30 gallon pot in my case and honestly it has been growing for like 6 mos. The seed fell in the soil from my last harvest in mid-October and germinated naturally in early December. Several came out and I gave away the other 5 to friends. This one stayed in it's home, never transplanted.
