Canna Boost Foliar feeding

Whats up OGRaq ? Molasses is the way to go and I will no longer endorse Boost in any way . If someone can show me a side by side that Boost is better I might change my mind because my SourBubble was Molasses for the last few weeks and it was perfect and frosty .

I use Grandmas but I just picked up a generic brand for half the price and is the exact same thing down to the color of the jar . I could be wrong guys but Boost is $100 a bottle and this is working for myself and I hope it helps others save some money with the way things are for people at the moment with the bad economy .

you can pick up the kind zoo is talking about hear in the us at most grocery stores, usally by the pancake syrup. in spain I don't know, the black strap usally can be found at animal feed stores.

sorry you feel that way greyskull. some of us have legal problems to deal with and others just don't like posting pics for whatever reason, doesent bother me either way. I have been in the grow for over 20 years and can hold my own with most growers, Im sure there better ones out there but thaats not the point, just growing is.

I have heard the sucanut works well, from what I have heard you mix it the same as you would molasas.

Don't know if this is your first run with SB or not but if it's your first run with it and first run with Molasses how do you know what it's doing ;)

If it's possible next run mix up different nutes to do your comparison. It's well worth the extra effort to see it for your own eyes :friends:

I havent tried it in coco but I used in when I did soil and to be honest I couldent see the differance, Im sure it must sweeten the final product some but I like to keep it as simple as possible . It would be nice to see a side by side of two clones ,one with molasas and one without.

hi all

just wanted to ad "Panela" is a concentrated version of molasses - its a common sweetener from southamerica. its basicly cane sugar molasses solidified to blocks..

it does not contain aditives in general. sounds like its worth a try.

also i think i figured out in what kind of shops to find molasses. most likelly in the special diet shops - there is tons of them - basicly its healthfood stores - but many of them have products for specific diets etc -and a natural sweeter should have its place there.

also it seems sport people use it too for extra energy etc..

lets see if i get hold of some..

peace all
