Whats all the fuss about organic vs Chemical nutrients ???? you here chemicals can do harm to the root system etc, what about mites ??? you can go organic ( neem) again will it fully get rid of them mites compared to chemical sprays that will probably wipe them out first shot ??? and most i must admit are environmentally friendly now.
You here the misconception of organic plant food will not burn or hurt your plants ???
You can burn your plants with any type of nutrients regardless if they're chelated or not. Feeding your plants is all about proper balance and timing. You can overdose your plants with organic fertilizers too, it's a common misconception that people have, just because it's "organic" does not mean you can feed your plants every watering at high dosage levels with no ill effects.
I'm personally a fan of the chemical fertilizers, but I prefer ones of a slightly higher quality.
chemical fertilizers are essentially exactly the same as organic fertilizers, only with a much more rapid absorption rate because you're skipping the step of decomposition within the soil. Of course, an argument can be made that the bacteria and viruses living within the soil are beneficial to over health of the root system, but this can be accomplished with hydroponic nutrients via beneficial innoculations and fulvic acids etc.
So what is the big fuss over all this ???? what about growth rates ????
compared to chemical grown like hydro vs organic soils are yields more with organic ???? i tend to think not, to me its all about rapid growth rates and as many yields per year as possible
Many organic growers tend to want to re use there soils and that is great for my self i tend to buy new every grow for the cost of soils is not that expensive to begin with and my old soils to be mixed in with outside gardens
whats your thoughts people
