Molasses

  1. I mix my ferts one gallon at a time but only use a third of it per watering. I am now mixing my bloom ferts using 1/4 tsp. Bloom Booster MG per gallon of water......this is ph corrected water and I also add 1Tblsp. of molasses. A few days later I'm getting about an inch of foam on top of the water level in the jug......is this fermenting? Can this harm the plants? Do I need to add the molasses just before I water to make sure I'm not feeding the plants alcohol?
     
  2. The molasses feeds(sugars) any microbes in your mix, thus the foam action . I wouldnt let it sit around too long without some aeration. Only mix what your gonna use up is my advice. It could spoil on you without water movement. jmo
     
  3. Thanks for the reply.......already decided to only mix a half gallon as needed.
