For anyone who has ever spilled Coke (high fructose corn sugars) on their lawn or spilled some sugar on turf you'd be amazed at how the lawn 'miraculously' takes off.  Not so amazing though when you realize that the sugars are simply stimulating the soil microbes and giving them a jolt


Just as a matter of curosity -- would it then be just as effective to fertilize a lawn (assuming you were willing to take the time, energy, and money to do so in the first place) with a 100 pound bag of sugar as opposed to a commercial fertilizer? Not that I would (when you have a huge lawn, , which we do, you somehow never get around to anything but mowing), but would it work? Just curious.
