100% Water Soluble Cane Molasses

RAW Cane Molasses is a highly concentrated, water Soluble micronised molasses that gives all the benefits of Liquid Molasses without all the mess. The smallest 2oz package of RAW Can Molasses is equivalent to 1 gallon of liquid molasses which makes it easier to transport.

Cane Molasses is an excellent source of carbon energy (food) for beneficial microbes. RAW Cane Molasses is a beneficial supplement to all feeding schedules. Works in conjunction with all nutrient and feeding programs.

Plants are autotrophic (self-feeders). In other words, plants make their own food through a process called photosynthesis, by which the plant manufactures its own sugars in the presence of full-spectrum light.
Some of the sugars are used as carbon skeletons for building plant tissues, but some of the carbohydrates are “burned” to produce fast energy for vigorous growth, reproduction and cellular repair.
Excess carbohydrates are stored for later use, or leaked to feed beneficial microorganisms in the root zone. In some cases, as much as 30-50% of the energy of photosynthesis is used to feed the soil-born microbes!

RAW Cane Molasses: The Carbohydrate Supplement

In soil, carbohydrates and other organic molecules feed the microorganisms, and microorganisms feed the plant. Although plants usually manufacture enough extra carbohydrates to feed a healthy population of plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria, it is sometimes helpful to provide carbohydrate supplements.
Supplementary sugars feed many of the microorganisms directly, allowing the plant to conserve some of its energy for increased productivity, quality and yield. Very little of the added carbohydrates are taken up directly by the plants, but both simple and complex carbohydrates are readily available to beneficial microorganisms.
In return, the microorganisms produce growth hormones, amino acids, 8-vitamins and other important bio-stimulants.

Excellent Carbon Source when Making Compost Teas

As more is discovered about the benefits of plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), there is a new interest in making compost teas and other microbial inoculants.
Water soluble carbohydrates such as micronised molasses cane sugar are an excellent carbon source when making compost teas. Molasses not only provides a good carbon source for rapid microbial growth, but it is also loaded with essential trace elements.
As beneficial microorganisms feed on the sugars, they multiply and divide, and in the process they make enzymes and co-enzymes that stimulate the plant.
Trace elements activate many of the enzymes that are produced.

Plant cells and microorganisms also produce organic acids called Krebs cycle Intermediates. In addition to energising plant cells, organic acids help the plant take up Important trace elements such as iron, manganese, copper and zinc.

For example, if there is an iron deficiency in the soil, plants will exude citric acid and other organic acids from its roots to help make the iron more soluble.
Introducing small amounts of Krebs cycle Intermediates directly to the hydroponic nutrient formula can improve the transport of mineral ions, while brewing up the metabolism of the plant.
