Feed, nurture (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nourish

I believe this is a double definition.

'feed' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'nurture' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for nourish that I've seen before include "Feed, sustain" , "Keep alive and well with food" , "encourage growth" , "Feed - encourage to develop" , "[OPPOSITE OF] starve" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Mirror.
