Overdoing the alfalfa?

I am wondering if you can. I used alfalfa cubes soaked until mush then spread a random generous amount around each rose bush along with a cup (or half-cup?) of RoseTone. I had the typical and amazing response of HUGE basal growth from many of my roses, but on some the growth seemed weak. The weakest growth came from the youngest plants, even though I toned their dose WAY down.
Part of my problem was that I did my last fert a little too late, so some of the roses with great new basals lost them. Not too big a deal, really. but I am wondering if alfalfa, even though it is organic in nature, can push too much growth or if I can slop it on at will and the roses will do what they are going to do regardless.
