Certainly. Your soil may be richer in nutrients than many others. Some plants may be doing fine with no or little fertilizer, and if it needs only a slight boost, less is better than too much. Should there be signs of a deficiency, then use the recommended amount.

Yes, it is possible to give plants less fertilizer than the package recommends. Too much fertilizer can harm plants, so it's important to follow a conservative approach when fertilizing. Start with a smaller amount and observe how the plant responds before increasing the dosage.
