Will Earthworm Castings Kill Chondropetalum Tectorum

Question

I applied a thin layer of earthworm castings to my entire garden, only after did I read that fertilizers will kill Chondropetalum, particularly synthetic fertilizers. I’m hoping that since earthworm castings are organic and the bag said NPK 1.25-0-0 my Chondropetalum will survive because I have 4 of them that would be a pain to replace. Any insight is appreciated!

Answer 1

I didn't find anything that said fertilizer was detrimental but since you used a very low concentration of organic, I can't imagine any harm coming to your plants.
