interesting article, thanks for sharing!

honey has anti-microbial properties.

i think molasses would still outperform maple syrup from a microbial perspective.

Does anyone know. Grade B syrup just as good to spray? How much per gal? How many timeZ per week, I bet it works well in compost tea too?

I would contact Jim Bryson, since he grew the 1818.5 with foliar applications of maple syrup, along with other amendments, fertilizers, etc.

With no knowledge at awl of any of these newly found sources of a sugar product to feed the goodness, I will stick w/ molasses (sorghum here in KY)!!! Peace, Wayne
