FAQ About Indoor Plant Nutrient Dynamics
What are some common signs of over-fertilization in indoor plants?
Common signs of over-fertilization include leaf burn (browning of leaf edges and tips), slow growth despite adequate water and light, leaf drop, crusty build-up on the soil surface or pots, and wilting. If you suspect over-fertilization, flush the soil with water to leach out excess nutrients and pause further fertilization until the plant recovers.
