    Sugar?

    I am dying to hear an answer on this one. I know that when you buy flowers you can use sugar water or even diluted 7-UP or Sprite because of the high sugar content.

    Sugar?

    You are supposed to put like 2 tbsp per gallon
    not a cup.

    Because sucanat is pure sugar cane
    so wouldn't it boost the photosynthesis processs?

    Sugar?

    I was under the impression that adding sugar would pronounce the quality of the plant but after talking to some professionals they tell me that adding sugar or anything fit for human consumption will have a very minor effect if any on the plant because what your adding just isn't available to the plant. He said to me alot of people ask him about these voodoo myths that are banded around the internet and that most of them are bullshit. This is one of them.
