Homemade or around the home fertilizers.

Question

I'm not talking like cow dung, but like I've heard that small doses of sugar added to the water could increase plant life. Does this work, and I know for a fact that birth control works GREAT!!!! If it is expired it works better. (My sister has a prescription and couldn't keep up with the daily pill, so now gets the monthly shot) Do you know of any thing that can excel plant life rapidly a.k.a. fertilizers that are around the house.

Answer 1

My uncle swears that epsom salts (dissolved in water) make his tomato plants grow faster.  Since magnesium is an essential component of chlorophyll, I can see how that might work.

Answer 2

Well, urine is a fertilizer because of the Urea in it which is a Nitrogen source. A little Epsom salts will make plants greener because of the Magnesium. Almost any liquidized protein could be a fertilizer but the higher the protein concentration the more it will smell bad. Think sour milk for instance.
