That the only way that the nutrients can be taken in by plant roots is if the fertilizer is dissolved in water explains why fertilizers must be soluble.
Specifically, plant roots need a specific amount of air, moisture and nutrients in order to be healthy and make the rest of the plant healthy. The only way that the roots can take in anything from the soil is in a dissolved state. In that way, the nutrients can travel up through the rest of the plant by capillary action, against gravity. Otherwise, the nutrients remain in the soil, present but inaccessible and unavailable.

For a precipitate to form do both products have to be soluble?
Yes, the reactants must be soluble.
what is a disadvantage of the overuse of artificial fertilizers?
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
Why is it good for fertilizer to be insoluble?
There are three points here. Firstly, soluble fertilizers can leach through the soil causing pollution. Secondly, putting a crop's entire fertilizer on the land in soluble form in spring may make the soil solution too concentrated for seedlings. Lastly, soluble PHOSPHATE inhibits mycorrhizal growth and gets fixed into unavailable forms.
Chemical fertilizers stimulate plant growth but if the concentration is too high they may damage roots What precautions concerning chemical fertilizers must a gardener take?
Use only the amount recommended.
