I was bottling with my wife today and when we finished and capped all the beers i noticed she did not pour the priming sugar into the bottling bucket.

Is there anything i can do to correct this.
 
You can run out and buy some "carb tabs". They are like drops of sugar that you add to each bottle. The "dosage" is on the package, and they work fine. Are the bottles already capped? All of them? If so, just wait until you get the carb tabs and then drop them in gently and recap. You'll need new caps, too, along with the carb tabs.
 
You could either:
-uncap all the bottles, pour them back in the bucket (carefully), add the sugar and re-bottle or
-uncap all the bottles and either drop in some carb tabs or very carefully divvy out all the sugar into the bottles.
 
Thanks for the quick responses.

I will probably just get some tabs and drop them.

Really appreciate the response.
