Too Much Rocket Fuel!

A few weeks ago I was deep into the yard work. Someone was helping me and working alongside me, so that made for a very productive day. I had him transplant three bushes from one spot to another. After he had planted one, I pulled out my "rocket fuel," which is a root stimulator for new plants or transplants. I asked him to use it with the second and third plantings.

Obviously he did. When I went to use it next, it was almost gone! Then I realized he had used way too much! Three weeks later those two plants are dead.

I think there is a lesson in here, a good one for me (and maybe for some of you!). Sometimes we are not supposed to push it to the max. Sometimes we need to just do a little. . .

We definitely don't want to get burned out and die on the vine. . .
