While my wife was eating her burger last night, topped with a thick slice of a huge beefsteak tomato from our garden, I asked her how it was.
She had one little complaint, "a little too sweet." :-)
That's about the only problem with some of the things out of our garden where things are grown organic - things are just "a little too good."
I think it's the nutrient exchange between microbes and other living organisms that make a difference. Chemical fertilizers, when watered in,
simply flow past the roots requiring the roots to "catch what they can" like one trying to pick apples off a tree when passing a grove in a
fast moving train. With the organic way, when microbes are actually attached and colonized on and among the root system of the plants, there is a
constant feeding of the roots - a symbiotic exchange of life between the microbes and plants.
