Could you in theory "water" a plant using milk? surely it has water content and enough nutrients? or would it just die?

don't you remember the story about the milk-fed pumpkin?
>> Jesus H. Christ !!nwi78PCb+iZ
The proteins and fat will feed bacteria and fungi, which may eventually kill the plant if the plant is infected by the thriving bacteria/fungi.... Otherwise milk would work, water is for the most part nutrientless, so anything with water (and no poisons) will work just as fine

but that infection thing is still a problem.

Yeah, I'm with Jesus, here. Plants don't get nutrients from water, they absorb it from the soil, and the nutrients from milk just aren't the right kind. Too much protein and not enough minerals. Also, and take this from the dude who spilled milk on the carpet last week, you will never want to go near your plant again.

The pumpkin thing only works if you introduce the milk into the plant's circulatory system.

I did this when I was in 6th grade for a shitty ass science project. I planted corn seeds in a pot and "watered" them using OJ on one and milk on another. They both sprouted and grew quite a bit, just shit tons of ants were all over the soil. Then I threw them out after turning in 20 days worth of crap.

crush a multi vitamin in the water you water your plant with, and remember nothing is more important than sunlight... as food is not an energy source for plants the sun is

This. Plants make their own nutrients. What they get from the soil is not food as such, its minerals and vitamins, and of course water.
Watering a plant with milk is silly, most likely the soil would get covered in mould and the plant would rot.

multivitamins have minerals, too...
