The Effect of Sugared Water on Plants
Now everyone wants to tell you what to do with your water or your plants and you have got to use distilled water or sugared water, put aspirin in your water but my theory on this is I would prefer fresh water as opposed to Kool Aid any day although Kool Aid is pretty good too but with my plants and my flowers .
I have found it is better to change out the water every two days and cut the stems on your cut flowers than to add the sugar water because the sugar is just stopping the water from going stale and so in the end you don't want to give your guest water that has been sitting out for a few days but you don't want to give your plants and your flowers water that has been sitting out or has some artificial ingredients added so I have found that sugar water is great because it does have that sugar water that sometimes sustains your flowers a little bit longer.
In the end cutting the stems a few inches and adding fresh water every couple days is going to make your flowers last longer than anything else that you can do and just by leaving them in the basement or in the garage wherever it is cooler when you are sleeping or when you are gone during the day you'll find that your flowers will last a lot longer in the end that way too. So there really is no need to add sugared water to your flowers because in the end fresh water is all they want."

How does salt and sugar affect plants growth?
How does salt and sugar affect plants growth?
What happens is that the higher concentration of salt in the soil outside of the plant cells causes water to move outside of the cells to try and equalize the concentration. Root cells die and, if bad enough, the plant will die. The damage gives the plant a burnt look- often on the leaf edges first.
The same thing happens with too much of any mineral.
Some types of plants can tolerate higher levels of salt and not be damaged. Their cells have a high concentration of salt already in them, so the water doesn't move out.

Putting sugar in the water will possibly have several affects on plants. One effect you have already seen by noticing that the soil stays moister in the pots watered with sugar water.
Water moves across a membrane by a process called osmosis.
When you add sugar to your water you are changing the osmotic potential of the pure
water. Less water will move into the root because of this change in osmotic potential so the soil will be moister. I believe this was the main question you wanted answered. One way that the sugar water may affect plant growth is that it could influence microorganism growth in the area
surrounding the roots. This may be good for the plants or bad for the
plants. The sugar concentration may also have an effect.
Maybe a little is good or a lot is bad. Only your experiment can show you the effects.

How does sugar water affect the growth in plants ?
Sometimes a pinch of sugar is added to water and fed to a plant that has wilted and hasn't been watered for a while. The sugar can help the plant quickly get back to normal. However, this doesn't always work and sometimes the plant might be too far gone to save. Also, sometimes a pinch of sugar is added to the water that cut flowers are sitting in order to preserve them for a bit longer. However, sugar is not usually added to the water that is fed to normal, healthy plants.
