take a look at the links page under "Neptune's Harvest" This is a Fish emulsion fertilizer.
This is normally used as a foliar fert in the middle of the season.
A general site search under "molasses" will give you all the answers you need.

Kole.........As it goes with the saying: "It 'aint Rocket Science", you may work with your soil. I often do just waht Ceis has suggested to you. There is seldom a specific pill like answer to any organic direction question.
I fish! A couple times a year I go bug popping at the local pan fish lake. Anything from a few to a couple dozen fish come home for me and my garden. I will filet a couple for the table and the rest I slide into the patch at random by sticking the shovel, leaning forward on it and dropping in a fish. I follow the precise organization of a gray squirrel. Yep...that's what I do. :)
Now more to the point...I also use Holland's Land of Giants dehydrated fish and cold pressed liquid fish that I purchase from Craig Lembke, in gallons, regularlly. Each week my patch gets some....just a little from a trigger squeeze bottle the first month as a foliar. This is a mater of one tea spoon full of fish liquids (either one) in a quart trigger squeeze bottle on up to two tablespoons full in a gallon when the patch is in full vine or full leaf. My patch is 1000 sq. feet. I apply two gallons in foliar once a week or half that much twice a week. I, most of the time, mix the molasses at the same rates and apply it with the kelp,fish,molasses treatments. I find that reasonably hot water serves a worthwhile purpose when mixing the slurry and then adding the cold, to finish the filling of the spray tanks.
