What to do if I over fertilse?

Over-fertilising your vegetable patch can cause a variety of issues such as stunted growth, yellowing leaves, and nutrient burn. If you've already over-fertilized your vegetable patch, there are a few steps you can take to rectify the situation: Water thoroughly: The first step is to give your plants a thorough watering to help leach out the excess fertiliser. Make sure you water deeply enough to flush the soil of excess nutrients. Remove affected plants: If some plants are showing severe symptoms, it may be best to remove them to prevent further damage. Add organic matter: Adding organic matter to your soil can help buffer the excess nutrients and restore balance. You can use compost, well-rotted manure, or other organic fertilisers to achieve this. Monitor your plants: Keep a close eye on your plants and watch for any signs of improvement or worsening symptoms. Adjust your watering and fertilizing practices accordingly. Remember, prevention is always better than cure, so it's important to follow the recommended fertiliser rates for your specific vegetable plants. Always read the label carefully and follow instructions to avoid over-fertilising in the first place.
