Human urine is great fertiliser. My dad grew the most amazing tomatoes and that was his secret ingredient. While our house was being renovated I used to sleep overnight to safeguard against breakin. With no bathroom, I just peed in a bucket and then diluted it with tap water and tossed the bucket over the front garden (at 5am before the neighbours were awake!). The plants appeared to love it - the growth was so lush. I also use urine occasionally in the compost - it speeds up composting process.
