What happens if you give plants too little fertilizer?
You definitely can give plants too much fertilizer - although it depends on the type of fertilizer as to what the consequences are. Too much fertilizer will poison the plants and make them either die or become sickly and more easily attacked by diseases and pests. Most granular and liquid fertilizers are basically salts and when they become concentrated in a solid or liquid form a burn can occur. Some weed-and-feed fertilizers actually work by overstimulating the growth of the weeds so that their growth exceeds the ability of their roots to supply water and nutrition once the fertilizer is used up - thus killing the weed. Too much fertilizer can cause the same problem in desirable plants including lawn grass.
