I own a mushroom business. In this business we grow oyster mushrooms. Oyster mushrooms life of carbohydrates so I need a way to extract those carbohydrates from vegetables.

I doubt using just pure carbohydrates would work. And what carbohydrates, in what form? Are you sure you will be able to make it cheaper than the market price?
 
The mushrooms grow on logs mad of grass and spawn. The log produces its amount of mushrooms and then dries out. Now I want to inject the carbohydrates into the log to refuel it.
