teas, because molasses adds a decent amount of magnesium, and a little too much magnesium really
causes big problems in containers. Don’t get me wrong, because cannabis loves and needs decent
amounts of magnesium, especially during flowering. However, you need to keep your magnesium
levels on your mind so you don’t go overdosing them, and this could happen if you were to use a lot
of molasses and CaMg+ at the same time.

water sucks for container or any other kind of gardening if you ask me. It is often way, way too salty!

Low Humidity and High Temperature Gardens
If your gardens run up in the high 80s (F) or hotter, and your humidity is often below 45% your
cannabis plants can go through a ton of potassium (K), and I think they actually sweat it out. If you
have really good circulation in your garden, as you should, this can just exacerbate the problem. Now

greensand, and good, all-purpose dry fertilizer with a good K number are all good ways to make sure
the K keeps flowing in your garden. When I used to see this in my grows in the olden days when I had
