I was reading one of my herbal gardening books and found this interesting tidbit. I wondered if anyone had tried it? I think I will this coming year.
Quoted:
Because comfrey leaves have a high mineral content, they make an excellent liquid fertilizer for garden and houseplants (allow leaves to decompose in a container of water).

A warning tho... comfrey is considered carcinogenic and is not recommended for internal use.
