I would hold back on the mollasses...I usually use it during the last 2-3 weeks of flowering...I have used A/N Sensi Bloom, and I have to say it has given me the best results, it's just hard to keep up with the costs of A/N's products, but they are the best, I must admit...
84 is ok, you may want to try and bring it down a little if you want to get the most out of your plants, around the low to mid 70's would be ideal...
I would test the pH, just to be safe...all you need is a quality digital pH meter, some pH up/down, and calibration solution, which may or may not come with the meter...if in soil try to keep the soil pH around 6-6.8, or you can do RiddleMe's Make it Rain technique...https://www.rollitup.org/blogs/blog2500-making-rain.html
If in hydro, try and keep it around 5.8, that seems to be the "sweet spot" for most strains...
GL!
And I'll check out your album as soon as possible!

Thanks for checkin in on my thread SLB!

I had a question for ya.... what is your opinion on using selzer water to spray on plants for co2 reasons?

The reason i ask is I used to use DIY co2 with yeast and sugar but since I can't stop adding lights I also had to install an exhaust fan so the co2 is out. If i was to spray anything it would be this:

I switch out the rez every week, and I start the nutes at 1/4 recommended strength and go up in 1/4 intervals every week until full strength is met, and I figure out when/if I need to "top off" my rez by the ppm levels

I have never used it, got the link from a guy that does and he loves it, CO2 in my basement is high enough to go to 91 degrees without any stress so I don't worry about CO2

Ummm, there are a lot of great nutrients out there that you should look into(i.e. General Hydoponics, Botanicare, Jacks, Biobizz, etc.)
So many to choose from, but if I had to pick one FF product, it'd probably be Grow Big...

That depends on your ppm levels...You do have a ppm meter, right?
i.e. during late flowering, I like to keep my ppm's around 1400-1600...so if it goes below that I add some nutrient solution to the rez(at the same concentration) and if it is higher, I add straight pH'd water...

I heard if you have a build up of salts in your soil...a vinegar and water flush will help neutralize the salts. Is this true to anyone's experience?

So I'm flowering my first grow and am 12 days into flower, just wondering when do you start to see bud? I see the hairs but not crystals or buds yet...
