Accordingly used 2 times the ammount of foxfarm nutes, she gonna be alright?
You can burn your plants in organics. I have done it before.

"To your first part (burn) I’m going to answer this with a “yes” with one caveat; It depends on the elemental type of organic N that you are using. N derived from urea sources (typically manures) and ammoniacal sources offer a greater opportunity to burn than non-urea N sources. This is due to the water solubility of these N types releasing ammonia gas which is what actually causes the burn/necrosis on the leaf. Otherwise, nitrate sources of N require an additional step in the nitrification process before being plant available and as such are least likely to cause burning/necrosis.

Typically one would see burning/necrosis in a non-organic medium onset much more rapidly than in an organic medium because the N source is already in a plant available form in non-organics. Non-urea and non-ammoniacal sources of N take longer in time to be available to the plant and require an active biological soil life to make it happen.

Associating lockout with burn/necrosis may be a stretch but in one way it does cause the other. Otherwise a lockout of nutrient availability in either medium is going to be related to one or both of pH and a competition between elements resulting in one or more elements being prevented from absorption by the plant. Soil organic matter aside, pH and nutrient lockout are going to chemically work pretty much the same way in either medium."
