John Fitzgerald+FollowCoffee Grounds = Secret Garden Hack?Who knew your morning coffee could supercharge your veggie patch? Turns out, coffee grounds are a game-changer for strawberries, carrots, bell peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, and eggplants. They add gentle nitrogen, boost soil health, and even help space out carrot seeds. Just don’t go overboard—too much can stunt growth or block water. Try mixing grounds into compost or soaking them for a DIY liquid fertilizer. Your plants (and wallet) will thank you! #Home #gardeningtips #coffeegrounds190Share
Erin Johnson+FollowUsed Coffee Grounds Storage Hacks You Need to TrySpread your used coffee grounds on a baking sheet lined with newspaper, keeping the layer about 2–3 inches thick. This helps them dry faster and prevents mold. Place the tray outside in the sun for 2-3 days, or on a sunny windowsill if you can’t go outdoors. Rotate the grounds and change the newspaper daily for even drying. If you’re short on time, preheat your oven to 200°F and bake the grounds for 20-30 minutes, flipping every 10 minutes until totally dry. Once cooled, pack the dried grounds into a clean, airtight container—mason jars work great. Fill it up to minimize air contact. Toss a strip of newspaper on top before sealing, then stash your container in a cool, dry spot. Check every couple of months to swap out the newspaper and make sure everything’s still dry. #CoffeeGrounds #SustainableLiving #GardeningTips #Food #Cooking132Share
