Chemicals or Crap, Which taste better?

[GluteusMaximus]

I've read many posts about the flavor being influenced by the type of fertilizer used (organic vs chemical) and I believe that there is absolutely no difference in taste which is the result of the "type" of fertilizer used. Obviously some fertilizers will produce better than others, however, I don't believe that this influences the taste directly. The better fertilizer will certainly produce better buds which consequently produces a higher end product, but I don't believe that the organic fertilizer will produce any difference in taste compared to chemical.

Since the plant takes in nutrients the same way regardless where those nutrients come from, it stands to reason that the plant will deliver the flavor dictated by it's genes not the fertilizer.

Any debate is welcome (encouraged)

As long as the man made nutrients are flushed out in the end there will be little to no taste difference.

Organics do have a little more of a dirt or earthy taste to many people and they also say hydroponics (my fav way to grow anything) had no taste so you get the full flavor of the bud. But you must flush the plant properly.
