So what does honey actually do...? other than attract ants and flies. Would raw sugar work the same?

Research mate I don't know.

I'm growing indoor my uncle grows outdoors he uses it as nutrient and it makes it sticky icky plus gives vigor.

If you ever cloned using honey you will notice it never drooped, if you use honey in non organic soil it does the same no droop and makes it strong.

I can see where massive blast of (honey or molasses) sugar really supercharges those microbial colonies... like speed for microbes. Feed the microbes a heavy blast of sugar and watch them grow, blow and go. Nothing in the world like a sugar high. I saw a 5 YO kid eat an Lb od Snickers 1 time, talk about a pumped-up kid...
How bad is the fall when the sugar high is depleted and the microbes revert back to the normal low-sugar environment?

I'm not attacking, I've used honey before. I've also told you this already. I've used it to clone and you are correct raw honey is better for that. But as far as it helping in the grow, it cost more money than it's worth imho.

If you can explain how and why it's a "crystal enhancer" in a reasonable way, that'd be awesome.

Applied in both soil and soil-less gardens, honey can be used as a natural carbohydrate in organic gardening. This ancient simple sugar source easily breaks down into a usable form to feed and support the growth of micro-flora (beneficial bacteria, fungi, etc.) and helps them to flourish. This, in turn, increases the plant's vitality and vigor, as the micro-herd is essential in allowing the plant to uptake and process nutrients in usable forms. Stressed plants may be returned to a stronger, more stable state and those on the verge may be brought back, preventing heavy stress from occurring.

Lol still doesn't have anything to do with "crystal enhancer". I mix my own organic soil and make AACT, I'm very familiar with how microbes use sugars bruh.

Have you guys looked into honey's antibacterial/anti fungal properties?

The honey acts as an anti-microbial and anti-fungicidal agent, protecting the cuttings against invading pathogens and increasing your chances of success

Honey helps to raise the Brix levels in fruiting plants; this boost in plant sugar levels can increase fruiting and flowering. In addition, the flowers and fruits produced will be sweeter and their aroma and flavor will intensify and improve.

You must forget microbes ARE bacteria and fungus...

You guys are always looking for that secret weapon that is going to make your weed better:roll: Im fine with my weed and have no need to improve muh shit. You guys keep on keepin on, but I dont need any "crystal enhancer" I keep my shit frosty. Im not gonna blast y'all with pics. I'm sure you both have seen what and how I grow. If not, you can look me up....

good luck to what and how you grow, may want to remove all the bark and twigs out of your home made soil mix next time as this would stop messing your ph up
and you would get less purple strips going up the stem

are you for real lol

Yea I started about 2-3 weeks early this year because I felt like I started too late last year. Probably over compensated, but if we do get a frost it'll be a light one and I think I'll be able to cover them to shield from the cold.

I just planted 40 starts of 1015y onions(20 in each bed) and jalapenos and bell peppers. Oh and I have 2 small tomatillos that just sprouted as well.
