More potassium than grass can use or the soil can hold has an inevitable result
When more potassium is added than the soil can hold, that potassium disappears. At least most of it does. This episode discusses research by Jackie Guevara at Michigan State University where this very effect was measured. The implication is, add a reasonable amount of K.
