lol pretty much yes. Microbes do everything they do in their quest for carbon. Organics actually translates to "of carbon based" so if the plant supplies the carbon, in the form of sugary exudates, the microbes are the plants bitches. If you feed them sugar you become their sugar dealer and they all quit working for the plant, but the odd dose here or there won't harm anything, and if the microbes are sluggish then it will boost them. Just don't get them addicted to your sugar water is all.Could you please check my understanding? For me, if I can spit it back at you in the form of accurate analogy, I get it. Regarding the sugar (I have the kill blackstrap organic unsulphured), if I get it, it’s like this: the microbes are my children. Sugar for my children is a treat, not a staple. You don’t give your kid Snickers bars with every meal. But once in a while and the kid is thrilled.
Is that a good way to think about it?
