And oragnic fertilizers are natural so they don't do any harm, lol your a funny guy!
I grow organically indoor. I reuse all my soil. I leach nothing nowhere. No runoff, no drain to waste.
Lex, when you get a chance please post some photos of YOUR awesome synthetic methods. I know you e have tech problems uploading photos, so I'd be happy to help ya there.
The photos linked in your sig don't look so hot. Why? Take a look at any of my grow logs, please. When your garden looks that good, your opinions will carry lots more weight.
Until then you can post all the stats articles links and references you'd like. My garden speaks for itself. What is your garden saying?
I use banana manna and swear by it. I does not make your weed tasted like bananas, it's NOTHING like those pineapple rush sweet type products. The only thing I'm certain is in it is IBA/NAA and banana hormones. Not sure what else. Definitely increases tric production and flavor aroma. I don't believe it's a carb source. I also brew teas like a mad dog.

NAA is a synthetic plant hormone in the auxin family and is an ingredient in many commercial plant rooting horticultural products; it is a rooting agent and used for the vegetative propagation of plants from stem and leaf cutting. It is also used for plant tissue culture.[2]
The hormone NAA does not occur naturally. In the United States, under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), products containing NAA require registration with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as pesticides.
Specific bacteria (e.g., Rhizobium trifolium) possess nitrogenase enzymes that can fix atmospheric nitrogen (see nitrogen fixation) into a form (ammonium ion) that is chemically useful to higher organisms. This process requires a large amount of energy and anoxic conditions. Such bacteria may live freely in soil (e.g., Azotobacter) but normally exist in a symbiotic relationship in the root nodules of leguminous plants (e.g. clover, Trifolium, or soybean plant, Glycine max). Nitrogen-fixing bacteria are also symbiotic with a number of unrelated plant species such as alders (Alnus) spp., lichens, Casuarina, Myrica, liverworts, and Gunnera.[31]
As part of the symbiotic relationship, the plant converts the 'fixed' ammonium ion to nitrogen oxides and amino acids to form proteins and other molecules, (e.g., alkaloids). In return for the 'fixed' nitrogen, the plant secretes sugars to the symbiotic bacteria.[31] Legumes maintain an anaerobic (oxygen free) environment for their nitrogen-fixing bacteria.
Plants are able to assimilate nitrogen directly in the form of nitrates that may be present in soil from natural mineral deposits, artificial fertilizers, animal waste, or organic decay (as the product of bacteria, but not bacteria specifically associated with the plant). Nitrates absorbed in this fashion are converted to nitrites by the enzyme nitrate reductase, and then converted to ammonia by another enzyme called nitrite reductase.[31]
How do you apply the banana manna Outwest? It's not surprising you find positive results with it considering it contains root growth hormones. More roots = better growth.
More roots = Better Nutrient Uptake :D
