From the News-Sentinel (IN). So easy a caveman can do it!
"Make an all-natural fertilizer.
•When preparing vegetables for meals, we have peelings and inedible stems and parts that we toss in the compost bin, the garbage can, or are ground up and flushed away in our garbage disposals. Instead, keep a bucket handy and toss the peelings and other plant material in a bucket.
•Cover with water. It can be either hot or cold, but ideally should be rainwater or distilled water. Let set for three days, stir occasionally, and drain off this nutritional tea into a watering can or gallon jug to be used on your houseplants. Finally, toss the plant material on the compost pile.
•This is a great way to feed our plants inside and out all year round.
•Outside use could be done with a garbage can or barrel situated so you can gather rainwater.
A word of caution: However you do it, use only healthy plant material to make this tea."
