To much fertilizer?

I fertilized yesterday for the first time. I made the mixture extremely diluted, like 1 part fertilizer to 6 parts water. They do seem to be larger this morning, but i noticed that there are some white spots on my favorite plant. It does not look like heat burn from the bulbs, but actually just dried up fertilizer. I was going to get a spray bottle full of water and gently wash the leaves off to see if that was the problem.

If it continues, or gets worse, what should I do?

I tested the pH before I fertilized and it was perfect, and I really don't think that that small amount of fertilizer would throw it out of balance that much, if I must, I can always just NPK levels.

Edit: I gently wiped the leaves down with water, the spots seemed to have gone away. False alarm.

Didn't read your post, but I was confused about the title. So many errors. Did you mean, "To mulch fertilizer" or "Too much fertilizer"? I'll let you clarify.

To much.

As in Over fertilizing. I'm almost positive that I didn't, I was just startled because 12 hours after I fertilized the plants they had a few white looking spots on them. I wiped them down with water and they look okay now.

you may have just incidently splashed some of the water onto the leaves. you have to be careful with that. maybe not as much on low doses but as you increase those doses you could end up doing alot of damage to your plants.
