Yes, the liquid molasses is mixed in with our water soluble fertilizer and pumped around the base of the plants. We mix our fertilizers in 32 gallon trash cans, then use a sump pump with the hose attached to feed. We have way too many plants to mix it up a small amount at a time. We only feed the molasses a couple of times a year, during rose show season.

It seems to really give the plants a boost. Dark green foliage and lots of blooms. This is a small section of our rose garden yesterday.
