Grow Mediums Bud sweeteners?

[OverGrown]

The copy paste;

"Budcandy"

S and Mg increase trichome production in the right amounts!

Try this.

8Tbl Epsom
1 1/2 tsp DARK brown sugar (MUST BE DARK brown sugar!!)
1 Gallon RO water
1 Gallon opaque jug or bottle

Bring to a boil 2 Cups of the water - pour the rest of the water into the jug/bottle.

Now add the Epsom and DARK brown sugar.
Boil for 4-5 min - stirring the whole time to be sure the chems have dissolved.
Remove from stove and pour into the bottle of cool RO water and shake it up well.

At a week before the flip add 5ml to a gallon of feed.
week of flip = 10ml
week 3-4 = 15ml till next increase
week 5-6 = 20ml till last week

This works! Several members here use this and PM'ed me back to say it does!
It increases smells and flavors too!

FWIW.

How about "bud hardeners - do they work? For example, Medocino Avalanche/Grow More (0-0.15-0), which looks to be growth promoters from kelp/algae, thiamine (vitamin B1), copper, sulfate, phosphate and maybe some carbohydrates/sugars.

My experience is for bud candy and a few other additives.

Taste is to subjective as is scent IMHO... That said, bud candy increases berry scented terps and terpinator is more citrus and pine boosting . I know of one recipe that's been on another forum for years "bud candy" (homemade = magnesium sulfate and dark brown sugar taken to X°f well mixed into h20).

Here is a partial chemical analysis of bud candy.

Here is terpinator.

Here is bud ignitor; just a pk boost @ 0-1-2.

I can't say the carbs, aminos, proteins, vitamins, chelated or otherwise, with some cool enzymes don't very well increase the availability and/or efficiency of product x to the plants cause idk much beyond observational experience. Most any A-B or M-G-B complete fertilizer with great environmental consistency and quality light is hard to beat indoors

Thanks for that link to the chemical analysis. That recipe for bud candy doesn't seem to difficult to make in my own..

Right on, same. Are you finding the molasses drop your ph when adding to the water feed?
My RO water is ph 6.5 after nutes. When I add one teaspoon in the 3L jug, wait 24hs, ph went down to 4.9-5.0! I raise after. Just wish I didn't have to
