How does everyone using molasses get it to the patch? I'm using an ez-flo fert injector, diluting it by 50% with water first, and it appears to be clogging the injector. Also, does anyone put molasses in their mist blowers?

Thanks!

Also add a little bit of dishwashing soap it helps break it up...1Tbsp per 2 Gallons of spray works for me

Yea the Dishwashing Soap is an intellegent way to go but the soap should be non-detergent. This makes no difference to the purpose it is being used while the non-detergent is less harsh any way you look at it.

Either soap accidently or planned will put a hurting on the aphids that are just starting to show up in this hot spring period. Saw my first aphids this week.
