I'm not an authority on this subject but I will say that a plant grows bigger when watered with milk. My grandfather who was a farmer used to water his pumpkins and tomatoes with milk right out of the tank and had some of the biggest tomatoes/pumpkins I've ever seen in my life! I believe it's due to the vitamins in milk.

I agree. And it"s also because milk has vitamins in it so like us humans we grow with milk in 1 way. So do plants

Milk has water in it but also has other ingredients ,too.Water is just plain water and thats why it grows better because you would have to water the milk plant a lot to put a lot of water in the plant. I'm doing it for a science fair and from my observations the plant watered by water grows the fastest.

Never put milk into water that is going to be applied directly to a growing plant. If you have milk that has gone "bad" you can put into a compost heap, It will then break down into nitrogen-rich fertiliser.

I don't know but I think that if anything water grows faster, but milk grows better and bigger. Water is plain , which is why it grows faster and Milk has lots of Vitamins plus water so it gives the plants lots of nutrition.As a result the Milk makes Plants grow bigger.

Double edged coin,milk and water has been used to con people  saying that it is fertilizer sprinkled on driveways wich makes the growth of moss and weeds grow at a fast rate,also it is used by the National trust to authenticate old buildings encouraging the growth of moss,

A small amount of milk mixed with water in the growing season acts as a fertiliser and helps develop stronger and faster roots, shoots, buds and blossoms, as milk has nutrients and trace elements beneficial to plants and shrubs.

Water is the main source. On occasions milk just makes the pot plant moldy and smelly
