Some people like the pH balancing properties of soil, it just 'works' for their situation.

Why does it bother you is the real question...

everything interesting that I don't understand bothers me. Call it a healthy curiousity.

PH balancing properties of soil? Do you mean the dolomite lime?

Cuz when using chemy it does not work. Or am I wrong?

It's my understanding that chem nutes can make the plant grow faster and yield more....however you are just giving the plant a handful of specific nutrients and missing out on a lot of other complex micronutrients/microbes/enzymes that are available in soil.

So why not get the best of both worlds and amend a nice soil mixture with a little chemically derived boost from time to time? Really, I don't see how it's so hard to understand.
