Over-zealous fertilizing brings unexpected result

Pride comes before a fall in this case, is true. I had two boxes of lovely healthy seedlings ready to give to friends. Why not add a little blood & bone to each pot to help them on their way? It was a lovely sunny day and one of the boxes was in the shade so I put it on the ground in a patch of sun and went inside to add a photo to this blog. 


Ten minutes later I stepped outside to a scene of havoc.I potted the seedlings up again. Most were saved but bent and battered, they were well and truly set back a week or two. It's liquid feeds (organic, of course) from now on.
