Just noticed in My P&N game that my home planet has a population of 4000M/2400M. hehe pretty crowded (I took the Naturalist trait that gives 60% capacity on Plantes)
Here is what probably happend: Is there a planet in orbit around your homeworld? Is it larger then your homeworld? You were probably meant to start on the second planet, but instead were switched because you always start on the first planet in the list (or is it Last) do you have to many facilities as well?

I think the significant one is the Naturalist Trait with gives planets 60% capacity. ( i Took some others like ORganinc, Temporal) The 'max' pop of 2400 looks like it is 60% reduced although there are 4000 peaople on it.
And I don't think it was the other suggestion XeroAdunn mentioned.
