http://www.advancednutrients.com/carbs Whether you're a hobbyist gardener or a professional grower, sooner or later you are going to hear about the carbs controversy...
What I'm talking about is this: Some people claim carbohydrates cannot be absorbed by plants at all, and that carbohydrate supplements are little more than snake oil.
Others agree your crops could use an extra boost, but they wrongly assert that carbs cannot be taken up by the roots. Better to apply them by foliar spray, they say. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth.
And believe it or not, there are even old-timers who still insist that all you need is molasses. High-grade molasses which is low in sulfur can indeed benefit your plants (if it doesn't clog up your lines). But what your crops really need is the full spectrum of carbohydrates that matches their species profile.
Let's face it, with so many contradictory viewpoints and misinformation out there, it is no wonder so many growers feel confused. The forums, as always, are abuzz with advice. Everyone has an opinion, and different people will tell you different things.
But what does the science say?
