Homemade super-fertilizer: coffee
Those who love coffee, there is lots of used coffee grounds (sleeps coffee, coffee cake). Our coffee gives a flavorful fish portions sleep coffee after each brewed Cup (pictured). A few cups a day — and gaining quite an impressive number of sleeps coffee. Many of his throw, but you can find good use for sleep coffee: this is a free home fertilizer and conditioner for soil in the garden and mulch, and addition to compost, and ‘repeller’ pests, and even homemade coffee scrub for the skin. Read our article than the second brew coffee useful plants, and gardeners.
Coffee as a fertilizerContent of vitamins and minerals in the ground coffee depends on the type and method of roasting. In spicam coffee the content of nutrients is much less than in fresh hammer. The second brew coffee contains 2% nitrogen, only some of which can be recycled by plants. In spicam coffee is also very small amounts contain potassium, manganese and magnesium. Yes, the second brew coffee rather weak fertilizing for plants, but why not use already available on hand and absolutely free home-made fertilizer? In my opinion, we should not throw away what can be recycled.
When using sleep coffee as fertilizer for house plants better prikopat coffee grounds, mixing it with the soil. If you leave the second brew coffee for the ground coffee can be formed mold. This does not happen on open ground because garden soil contains a lot more microorganisms than in the pot of a house plant. Therefore, in the garden coffee can be used as a mulch, just emptying the second brew coffee directly into the garden or flower beds.
The second brew coffee in compoststudies show that the proportion of nitrogen contained in spicam coffee, not available to plants immediately, and is released under the action of microorganisms. Microorganisms commonly found in soil, and most of them are, of course, the compost. So the second brew coffee is a great addition to the garden compost. The nitrogen contained in spicam coffee, raises the temperature of the compost pit, improving the recycling process of organic matter.
Like the second brew coffee and earthworms, so the owners of Biosystems with Californian earthworms well fed they are the second brew coffee.
The second brew coffee for plants of acidophilusCoffee, as a drink that is acidic pH of 6.0. However, the remaining coffee grounds — weak coffee has almost neutral reaction with pH 6.5. Slightly acid reaction sleep and coffee makes it a great conditioner for the soil under the acidophilus plants that prefer acidic soil. Acidophilus refers to a large group of ornamental garden trees and shrubs (hydrangea, Camellia, mahonia, many azaleas and rhododendrons are some of them), and fruit and ornamental shrubs of the Heather family (Heather, Erica, blueberries, etc.).
It is interesting that gardeners, a mulch of coffee speak well not only acidophilus, but also other garden plants, such as roses, tomatoes or peppers. And poinsettias.
Not necessary to pour the second brew coffee under the seedlings or the soil in which you are trying to germinate seeds. There is evidence that coffee slows down the germination of seeds and inhibits the development of young plants.Photo: garden blueberry growing in our garden and in containers near the kitchen. When the coffee maker is filled with coffee and sleep ‘requires’ to set her free, I just empty the container under the blueberry bushes.
The second brew coffee against garden pestsSome studies have shown that a weak solution of caffeine enters in confusion and deters slugs and snails. Therefore, growers are actively using the second brew coffee as mulch in the beds with green crops, which are especially loved by slugs, and argue that it helps to combat these persistent pests of crops.
Some argue that the second brew of coffee scattered on the garden beds deters cats and dogs.
The second brew coffee as a body scrubAnd finally, the second brew coffee is a great free body scrub and exfoliating effect which is not only physical but also chemical due to the weak acid content. The second brew of coffee mixed with butter and brown sugar or use as is, rubbing his body before a shower.
Where to take the second brew coffee?
In a large number of weak coffee you can get in coffee houses. Starbucks in the United States even has a special program the second brew coffee for gardeners (Grounds to Gardeners). At the exit from the coffee shop you can take a big package of coffee cake is free to use in the garden. In Europe I haven't seen in coffee shops such proposals, but some gardeners say that you can just walk up to an employee of the coffee shop with such a request and receive a large batch of sleep and coffee for free.published
