widowmaker said:I just started using carboload in my hydro setup. If anyone is growing hydro and are thinking about using carboload, have the ph up ready!! I never had to use ph up and only adjusted the ph once to 5.6 .Since im using ro water it stayed around that range. I put the carboload in, checked the ph and it was fine. But the next day it was at 2.9!!! and i only had enough ph up to bring it up to 5.0. Luckily they didnt die or anything

Never did a side by side comparison but Ive gotten some big buds.
Rehab is for Quitters said:Okay I'm just popping in here to say I totally endorse adding the mollasses. I have 8 plants in flower and 2 weeks ago I started adding mollasses (2 tablespoons per gallon of water) to 4 of the plants.
The buds on the 4 plants getting the mollasses have gotten HUGE!! They're probably about 40% bigger than the non-mollasses group (these are all white widows btw). My book said they should only get 20% bigger with mollasses, so I am guessing that maybe the non-mollasses group may have a growth spurt at some point to narrow the gap, but we'll see.
Thanks to everyone for all the info.
ETA: I should also add that I am flowering this time with all flouros, so my buds were a little airy....the mollasses buds now look like what you get with HID.
