I've heard OzGrowa speak about using molasses or a sugar mix recipe towards the end of flowering in hydro set ups- it mimics some microbial action that happens normally in soil grows.

I do remember the Delta thread about molasses in soil, but I would not try this without some very precise directions from a master grower. Even then, I would have to ask just what are we accomplishing here? And is it really necessary?

Sugar+soil looks like it would cause bacterial problems.
I'm not naysaying the idea so much as advising caution and research.
