Both can be used to get great results.

I like to think of organics as keeping the soil healthy, providing it with what it needs and healthy plants will follow. With chems it's more directly about the plant. But the division isn't quite that clear cut.

Also how the nutrients were sourced is different, did they come from a factory with tall chimneys blowing out black smoke or from a bat's arse...

basically organics relies on microbes to break down the ingredients and make them useable for the plant and chemical nutes are already in a useable form

Its all about what you want to put inside you. Good stuff aka organics or crap chems. Medical use or just to get high.

I always advise people to use simple tried and true chemicals and learn about the plant a few years before they go and change fundamentally the method they grow with. One is not better than the other it mostly comes down to your motivations.

I started my first 2 years with chem soil then hydro but in that time my view on my place in the universe changed and I dedicated myself to only healing and positivity. I was and am impoverished so I tried to evolve methods that were cheapest. It lead me to recycle my soil and use soil amendments that I could produce in my back yard. This has been 4 years of mostly failure but I kept learning from my mistakes. I would never tell someone to go through what I did but it was absolutely the right thing for me.

I love organics because of the taste of herb produced! Organic tastes incredible and more complex, but that said, you may have to learn a little more with organics that synthetics. If you want organics easy just start with a liquid organic(or nearly organic) fertilizer line. I really like Gerneral Organics(with a little Pure blend tea) and its widely available and easy to use. Also don't be scared to combine lines of different companies. Synthetics are cheap and easy but organic will make herb taste amazing. Organics could also be cheap if you source your or supplements and make soil mixes, but bottled organic are more expensive. I will never grow with synthetics again, but you must make your own choice. Just remember organic is all about the tastes...
