I did not say that "organic matter does not break down and feed plants", you just believe I implied it--you can believe anything--I cannot control your mind. I never said "you have to give a plant commercial fertilizer", but my experience has shown me that they will grow much faster and are more productive. In my opinion, organic matter is more important for what it does to the soil, not what nutrients it provides. Some of the plants I grow do not like rich organic soils--citrus and periwinkle, some prefer it --blueberries and bananas, but all of them do better with commercial fertilizer in my experience.
