They are looking real good. Keep doing what you are doing and Don't overthink it at this point. If you like those buds now, you will love them at harvest as they will easily double in size and probably triple in weight by harvest. How much more they grow greatly depends on the strain phenotype and the conditions, but I easily see the buds doubling to tripling in size and weight. All MJ plants will pack on weight towards the last 2-4 weeks depending on the strain. I have found with my plants that they seem to stop or pause during the 5th to 7th weeks. I call it the 7th inning stretch as it appears that they just stop growing for a time, but then they jump up and take off again for the last few weeks, and that is when the buds really swell if the conditions are right. I usually cut off my nutrients within the last 10 days but that is for hydro. For you, I would say to feed on your schedule right to the chop. Later as you get more experienced, you can try different things to see what works best for you. Good work

Actually, using molasses with nonorganic nutes/dirt growing will add carbohydrates to the nutrients, and that adds bulk whether or not you're growing "organic". And imo/e it also adds to the fullness, the bouquet, the overall taste of the bud. It tastes good because its full of all the potassium phosphorus, nitrite compounds, iron, cadmium, boron, copper, and other materials the sugar cane pulled from the soil.
Not to mention the trace minerals that benefit the plant.
You're confusing the fact that molasses is ALSO utilized to feed the beneficial microbial colonies (i.e. mychorrizae) that in turn help with better nutrient uptake for an "all organic" method of growing.
I use molasses in a mixed nutrient type (chelated vs. non-chelated) of setup. i.e. organic soils with some nutes requiring ph-balancing (FFgrowbig, TB and CC)and others not (FFBig Bloom, molasses) because they are ready to be used and "organic".
