Whats the deal with sugar water?

I am in the process of feeding my outdoor plants molasses along with big bloom nutes. Since i am using it on all of them its not really a controlled study, but i do have a lot of experience with fermentation, curing, and composting and molasses, for all practial purposes, is a chelating agent as they feed the bacteria that makes nutes more readily available for the roots to take in. It also contains some trace elements that plants can use.

I have done molasses trials. I have seen no benefit.

BTW, the plant shown in my avatar which yielded a cola big enough to hide my face and rock hard, was a result of using common sense, no kiddie gimmicks and off the shelf Walmart food.

WHAT KINDA WAL MART FOOD?
SOME OF THE LARGEST NUGS IVE EVER SEEN WAS GROWN WITH MIRACLE GROW, IT SMELLED GREAT AND LOOKED GREAT, BUT WHEN I SMOKED IT, IT WAS SUM OF THE WORST TASTING WEED I EVER HAD. THE SHIT WAS HARD TO GIVE AWAY FOR FREE.

I SEEN M.G. GIVE THESE SAME RESULTS EVERYTIME.

ANYHOW, IS IT MIRACLE GROW OR WALMART BRAND OF M.G. ?

I DO AGREE WITH THE molasses DEAL... DONT THINK IT MAKES THE BUDS SWEETER OR BIGGER. BUT IT DOES INCREASE MICROBIOLOGY, YOU CAN DO THIS TEST AT HOME: MAKE/BUY A COMPOST TEA. LOOK AT THE MICRO LIFE IN A DROP OF WATER UNDER A MICROSCOPE, THEN ADD ANY SIMPLE SUGAR COMPLEX (POWDERED SUGAR OR RAW SUGAR, ECT.) AND COME BACK AND LOOK AT IT UNDER A MICROSCOPE AFTER THE SUGAR WAS ADDED AND YOU WILL SEE THE INCREASE IN MICRO LIFE.

QUESTION IS: DOES MORE MICRO LIFE = MORE WEIGHT? IDK?
