THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ORGANIC VS INORGANIC

hello
so have read a lot if misconceptions about organic vs inorganic or standard chemical nutrients. The difference is ...they are the same when it comes to the actual chemicals . The only difference is how they are bonded and supplied. Nitrogen as in calcium nitrate Ca(NO3)2 is a nitrate NO3 . Nitrogen from blood meal or compost is also a nitrate NO3 . blood meal or compost could also contain ammonical nitrogen NH4 just like ammonium nitrate NH4NO3. The difference will be the carrier molecules which will be carbon. The definition of organic is ..carbon containing . Carbon has the benefit of being able to adsorb ( adsorb not absorb. it means to adhere to inner surface ares as opposed to being dissolved. dust sticking to your tv screen would be adsorbed and mixing chocolate milk it is absorbed) excess minerals to its extensive surface area. activate carbon in air cleaners has about 2 ACRES per lb . of adsorable space. soil carbon has much less but still a considerable amount . it can make soil , what is referred to, as sweet , but only to a certain point . Organics such as blood meal, bone meal, compost or manure Also has 4he benefit of having a great diversity of trace minerals and other compounds such as enzymes , amino acids , co enzymes etc. thses are not necessary for the majority of growth but they definitely help complete pathways ( like molecular keys ) that are responsible for taste , flavour, and nutritional value . They will support a good microbial system of healthy microbes extending the trace compounds even more . with that said plants can and will also aBsorb nutrition right out of the air from respiration. that is why plants will contain significantly more compounds than the 12 minimum minerals needed to grow . Belgium endive , also known as witlof can grow in pure water with no nutrients absorbing all its nutrients from the air. an excellent run inorganic system can produce 95 to 99% the quality of an organic system any day of the week, sometime as even better as nutritional availability is generally better. Nutrients in organic compounds such as compost are listed as Water soluble and water insoluble , which is exactly as it sounds. Part of the nutrient available will easily be absorbed into water but sown will not. It will need to be broken down by biological action though the microbial system which will take time and is not instant. it can take years in some cases. Pollution and nutrient toxicity in soils and streams is not restricted to just inorganic chemical. Any water soluble source has the same potential such as green cow manure ( un composted ) . Organics also have 5hr ability to produce and leech toxic bacteria such as ecoli which was responsible for several deaths here in Ontario in walkerton 10 or 15 years ago.
the spectrum of trace minerals that are available through organic sources can be added just as easily to a inorganic medium to enhance a standard chemical inorganic system such as rockwool or pro mix . a compost tea is an excellent way to get all 4he benefit of an excellent organic soil without the issue of possible nutrient deficiency ( as again organics are not as consistent and readily available like standard chemical based fertilizers) or bacterial infections or viruss with can crop up in organic a lot faster sometimes than a relatively sterile hydronic system. there are a lot if ways to combine the two for the best results and least potential negative issues.
now talking about the bacteria specifically , they are a life form unto their own like the plant. you are not only growing a plant but growing /culturing a microbiome. unfortunately the microbes can take months 5o establish to see thr benefit and short crops like weed planted in posts rarely spend more than a few months in the pots. microbes can turn outside fields into wonderful biologically active and diverse places with much more of a benefit. especially with nitrogen fixation bacteria. the amount they would fixate in put inside would be relatively minor but in an acre 4he results can be significant. it could be the difference between adding several tons of compost or nitrogen fertilizer with 10' s if 1000's of dollars.
if you want to read more I would recommend THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF ORGANIC GARDENING ( will insert pic below ) one of 5he best agriculturally science based book I have seen .
so there are a few things to think about when making your choices.
