I knew about slapping tea bags on infected eyes, but a friend of mine always emptied her teapot into her houseplants, saying she was feeding them. No milk, obviously - no good ever comes of drinking milk - humans or plants. I can only report mixed results, but her plants were thriving.

Only loose tea. We discovered that teabags in compost survive as sad little plastic corpses.

But Milk is good for plants. Dairy Farmers empty out their milk tankers across the crop fields in a crisis - better than down the drains, and the crops thrive! I emptied out unused expressed breast milk onto my house plants, and they grew up strong and lush, as did my babies!

Of course I don't drink that nasty stuff myself.... :)
