Fertilizer from the water from under the potatoes
You can water house plants, garden and garden crops with the water left after cooking potatoes. The fact is that the liquid contains a lot of phosphorus and starch, potassium, as well as other useful vitamins and trace elements. Without them, the development and fruiting of most plants is simply impossible.
You can safely water those garden crops growing on your plot with pre-cooled potato water. It is suitable for moistening indoor plants, but it will play the role of nutrition for them.
Potato water helps to start the full growth and development of plants, strengthening the root system. Watering can be done several times a month, but not more than once a week.
It should also be remembered that under no circumstances should you use the water from under the potatoes immediately after cooking. The potato broth must first cool, and only then you can start watering. Flowers and vegetables do not like hot water. Salty potato water should also not be used for plants, because it can cause their condition to deteriorate.
