Coffee Fertilizer? Sure!

| Ground Coffee by-products can be used in the garden and farm as a great fertiliser! Add to your flower beds and let them help to enrich the soil!: |
| |
1. |
Sprinkle used grounds around plants before rain or watering, for a slow-release nitrogen. |
2. |
Add to compost piles to increase nitrogen balance. Coffee filters and tea bags break down rapidly during composting. |
3. |
Dilute with water for a gentle, fast-acting liquid fertilizer. Use about a half-pound can of wet grounds in a five-gallon bucket of water; let sit outdoors to achieve ambient temperature. |
4. |
Mix into soil for houseplants or new vegetable beds. |
5. |
Encircle the base of the plant with a coffee and eggshell barrier to repel pests. |
