Could I have put to much 'fish fertilizer' on my Lambs Ears?

I diluted it the way it says on the bottle...but its been 2 weeks now and half my Lambs Ear stand looks like its all dried up! THey have all sent out their flower stalks. I wasn't sure if this is
what it does or maybe I put something around them that was too strong. We did have lots of rain for a couple weeks. Can't figure out why only half became dry and powdery like. Anyone have any ideas?

Ladybeetle, it was probably the rain.......those lambs ears are so hardy they'll even come back after a DH tills them up...............LOL, and growing in red clay. Cut off the flower stalks if you want their root system to get bigger. Don't give up on them.

Fish emulsion isn't at all like the synthetic fertilizers--it doesn't have that much nitrogen in it to begin with and it releases more slowly than the synthetics so you'd have to try really hard to add too much. Unless your fish emulsion was one of these new deceptive "organic based" products that take a perfectly good organic fertilizer and juice it up with a bunch of synthetic junk to get the N/P/K numbers up, if that's the case then you could burn plants with it. But even then the rain would have probably washed away the excess so it still shouldn't be a problem (especially since you followed the label instructions). I agree that the rain is much more likely to have been the problem. Hopefully once things dry out a bit they'll come back for you.

After my lambs ears, we call them lambs tongues, finish flowering, they do start to look a bit dried and the stems go woody, the rain is always a problem for me here in UK, the leaves are so soft and velvety that they absorb lots of water from the rain like a sponge, but just cut the flower heads off them, remove some of the wet soggy foliage and leave them alone till next spring when you will find new growth, so remove the old bits by pruning them off if you think there are dead bits, the plants will send out lots more new shoots for flowering next summer, they are plants that like hot dry conditions and thrive in poor soil so dont over feed them, better to add some organic matter around the roots this autumn than to feed them in summer when the roots are still growing under ground, if you dont dead head, you will find tiny new plants growing in the most strangest of places as they self seed easily, good luck.

ahhh...hope it was the rain. I'll deadhead and add compost around them.Thanks everyone!

Someone the other day just told me about putting 'fish fertilizer' on my plants. Where do you get this ? Is it safe for all plants ?
Thanks

Out here you can find it at most garden centers, but I don't know if that's true everywhere or not. It's a good organic source of nitrogen. Usually you'll find it called fish emulsion, sometimes they also put in seaweed which adds some additional nutrients. I can't think of any plants that you couldn't use it on.

Ok thank you so much
