Going back to Cym Ladye's comments for a moment...

Right or wrong, I am starting to cut back on my fertilizer use - still using it at every watering, but cutting the dosing from 100-150 ppm N to about 75-100.

Knowing that lab rats and people both have proven to be healthier and live longer if given a controlled, limited diet, maybe the same is true with plants??
