Ground Coffee, not coffee grounds

(1/2) > >>

ericalynne:
I know used coffee grounds are a good soil amendment. But what about ground coffee before it is perked? I have several pounds of rather old coffee that is never going to be brewed. Can I add it straight to the soil, or scatter on top around the plants, or should I brew the coffee first? Can I used dilute coffee to water plants? Anyone ever done this?

thanks,

Erica

I don't see how it could hurt if you use it straight.

Erica, it will be higher in acid (lower PH) before used so it will be even better.  :)
