Today, my boyfriend admitted that he regularly pees in our vegetable garden "to give the plants nitrates". FML

Nitrates, sure, but what about electrolytes? *That's* what plants crave!

It's not like the plants are soaking in and retaining urine. They're only soaking in what they need and would be getting elsewhere. As long as you wash them, it'll be good. Though, I'd be more worried about him burning tender plants, he has no way of checking his PH!

I hope you told him urine is not typically supposed to have nitrates in it....

He's right. I grew up on a farm and the bushes and plants we peed next to grew better. just make sure he avoids peeing directly on the leaves as that will burn them.

Can't wait to find out what he's using for fertilizer

Then piss on his plate and see how he likes it and tell him to GROW THE HELL UP.
