Lush foliage on the plant and nutrient depletion in the soil are what happens when too much fertilizer is added to plants.
Specifically, too much fertilizer achieves its purpose and then some. It encourages lush foliage at the expense of other important life processes, such as flowering, fruiting and seeding. Additionally, it leads to decreased soil health because it supplies only a few of the many necessary soil nutrients. It limits soil options in terms of air, life, moisture and nutrients.
