Is it possible to overdose with a slow release fertilizer?  I used a 14-14-14 osmocote but i didnt really measure when i put it on.There was about a tablespoon measuring piece in there that i used about one tablespoon every 1 and 1/2 gallon of pot size. so for the 7 gallon pot i have i used 5 talespoons.  I guess it was my own fault if i over did it.  I have been so busy this spring that my gardening seems to be the last thing i get around to doing!  Oh I lied! checking the forum is the last thing i am getting around to doing this spring.  Forgive me guys!

I do not think you overdosed.  There is much less risk burning your plant with slow release fertilizer unless you way overdose.
