OK - found something significant i think... the difference isn't really organic vs. non-organic - the difference seems to be naturally occurring vs. synthetic! Though i still don't see the value in using strictly naturally occurring nutes/ferts/pesticides if the synthetic versions are safer and more effective (that is a hypothetical if btw).
But we use synthetic light to grow our plants (unless we're outdoor growers) so that doesn't seem to be a consistent choice either.
The more i look into this the more confused i get!
