Nutrition for building muscle

I'm currently working on gaining muscle. I'm 19, 5'7 and weigh around 112. I want to really build muscle and get my weight up to a better number. I don't need training advice I just had a question about carbs. I track my macros so that I make sure I am getting enough protein and calorie in general but how important is it to stick to carbs when building muscle? I always am in the range of 250-400 depending on the day but my carbs are always 90% healthy carbs. Should I even worry about the carbs as long as I'm aware that they are from healthy all natural sources?
