Inorganic Commercial Fertilizer Advantages * Nutrients are immediately available to the plants. * The exact amounts of a given element can be calculated and given to plants. Inorganic Commercial Fertilizer Disadvantages * Commercial fertilizer, especially nitrogen, is easily washed below the level of the plant's root system through the leaching of rain or irrigation. * An application which is too heavy or too close to the roots of the plants may cause "burning" (actually a process of desiccation by the chemical salts in the fertilizer). * Overly heavy applications of commercial fertilizers can build up toxic concentrations of salts in the soil, thus creating chemical imbalances. * Expense.
The nutrients in artificial fertilizers do not stay in the soil for very long. For this reason, gardeners must apply inorganic fertilizers to their soil more often than organic fertilizers. Inorganic fertilizers that release their nutrients into the soil more slowly, and thus require fewer applications, are available from some manufacturers. Excess nitrogen causes plants to die

The types of inorganic fertilizers one can use are easily broken down in something as simple as water, while giving the plant nutrients immediately. Examples of inorganic fertilizers are any brand with NPK in the ingredients. While ones without NPK are chemicalized.
Practically any disadvantage (an example may be the use of phosphates containing uranium); the so called organic agriculture is not serious and is not an economic solution.
· Inorganic fertilizers sterilize the natural minerals and nutrients found in soils. · Inorganic fertilizers don't just effect our gardens but also our water ways. When it rains the fertilizer runs into our drains contaminating our water and killing fish. · Inorganic fertilizers sterilize the natural minerals and nutrients found in soils. · Inorganic fertilizers don't just effect our gardens but also our water ways.

Inorganic fertilizers are used to improve the production of cereals and other edible plants. They also can improve the quality of soils. But the abuse or incompetent use of fertilizers must be avoided; pollution of the environment is the consequence.
Yes, any fertilizer will effect the plant's growth. It's just that inorganic fertilizers are made chemically instead of being made from naturally occurring ingredients.
Organic fertilizers normally last in the soil longer than inorganic ones.
the advantages to inorganic fertilizers is that it makes the plant grow bigger and faster than organic. But the disadvantage is that it might kill the plant. Inorganic fertilizers have a lot more nitrogen so can boost the plants growth a lot. But part of that is in the form of ammonia, and if you've ever experienced ammonia, you will realize that if it builds up in the soil it will sterilize the soil, in which case there will be no way for organic fertilizers to get into the food chain of the plant, so you're then stuck with more inorganic fertilizer, and so on. Also, inorganic fertilizer can sometimes push the plant into too much growth at the wrong time, like folks who want a nice green lawn when the grass should be shutting itself down and preparing for either winter or the dry season, rather than putting out new leaves to get killed.

Fertilizers are inorganic nutrients that plants need to grow.
