Drake says too much fuel causes overgrowth, obesity, and pest problems, because fuel adds amino acids, not just nitrogen. (Office Hours Ep. 41, 1:08:13) Another Office Hours answer agrees. Too much nitrogen causes overgrowth and makes plants more attractive to pests. (Office Hours Ep. 126, 39:37)
Strength matters too. The course manual says a more dilute mix, 1:800 or 1:1000, suits cases where leaf burn is possible. It names hot weather and FPJ more than a year old. (Student's Manual, Basic Course, p. 37)
The library says nothing about mold pressure, orchids, or how to recover after a heavy dose.

It's possible to burn particularly delicate plants, like lettuce, or orchids (which i've done!). (soaked the orchids in too strong a solution of maintenance formula and the flowers fell off.) Another theory which i have not tested, is that too much knfFood without enough/any knfCleanser could increase mold pressure because sugar is acidic and needs alkaline vinegar to balance it. hope this helps.
