    I have most of my plants in containers, and I sprinkle a couple of tablespoons in most of them about once a week. Check and see if your plants like acidic conditions before you use them.

    Yes, acid loving plants will thrive. This year we regularly put coffee grounds around our blueberry plants and we have the largest crop ever.

    If you have a blender put coffee grounds, banana peel (&/or orange peel) and some egg shells in it, blend it all together then spoon it around the bottom of your plants

    Coffee grounds alone also good to help fertilize your plants
