Hey gardeners, Ken Lain The Top 10 Gardener here! Let’s brew up some knowledge about coffee grounds in the garden!
While a few grounds sprinkled around your plants can provide some benefits, like a touch of nitrogen and acidity, they're not a substitute for fertilizer.
Think of coffee grounds as a mild soil amendment. They can help improve drainage and attract earthworms and acid-loving plants like hydrangeas and camellias will appreciate the lower pH. But for optimal growth, your plants need a balanced fertilizer like our 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food.
So enjoy your morning coffee, and then toss those grounds in the compost or sprinkle a few around your acid-loving plants. Just remember, a little goes a long way!
