I am glad it was posted, & as none of us has all the answers any
additional info I can obtain about personal anecdotes or whatever is
always welcome.  I wonder if lots of the problems many report may
stem from the lack of mineralization of the soil, regardless of
whether the food is organic or not.  I would choose high-mineral
produce over organic any day.  The Clean Culture movement (over a
century ago & featuring no nitrogen & loads of rock dust for
fertilizer) was on the right track.
