I just applied some Miracle-Gro Shake 'n Feed to all my plants, both in pots and in my garden bed, and I might have gone a bit overboard! I'm feeling really anxious that I might have over-fertilized them and could be risking their health. Can anyone reassure me that they're going to be okay?

Chill out, they’ll be just fine! A lot of folks use Miracle-Gro liquid every few weeks and have healthy plants. Just make sure to follow the instructions and give them plenty of water after feeding. You've got this!
No need to stress! Your plants are going to be fine. Miracle-Gro is designed to be safe and effective. Just make sure you water them well after applying the fertilizer, and they should thrive!
You've got this! The fertilizer is a slow-release type, so your plants will handle it without any issues. Plus, a lot of nutrients can actually wash away in runoff before even reaching the plants, so don't worry too much! If you're still concerned, consider getting a free soil test from your local agricultural extension—it might give you some extra peace of mind. Also, for next time, organic options like Epsoma are gentle and great for the plants! Enjoy your gardening!

Totally agree! Keeping them well-watered after fertilizing really helps.
