Unsulphured Blackstrap Molasses is commonly added to organic fertilizers to give plants the necessary carbohydrates and trace minerals that they need to be healthy. Not only ensuring the maintenance of nutrients in the soil but also ensuring that micro-organisms are being fed, creating the ideal environment for these microbes to flourish. The ‘unsulfured’ part is important because sulfur is used in some products as a preservative which tends to kill the beneficial microbes which are found in soil. The ‘blackstrap’ is important because it’s the most nutritious of all types of molasses. Blackstrap molasses is created from the third boiling of sugar in the refinement process. Blackstrap Molasses contains the highest concentration of nutrients which includes vitamins and minerals like iron, calcium, potassium, and magnesium. These nutrients are absorbed quickly and are available immediately for fast-growing plants. Introducing Blackstrap Molasses to your feeding schedule has the additional benefits of fighting off pests, improving the growing medium’s structure and water retention as well as assisting in the prevention and build-up of pathogens that could harm your plants.
