Plants & fertilizers - Import export

There are several ways to recycle used coffee grounds: Composting: Coffee grounds are high in nitrogen, which makes them an excellent addition to compost. Simply mix them in with other compost materials and let nature do its job. Fertilizer: Coffee grounds can also be used as a natural fertilizer for plants. Sprinkle the coffee grounds around the base of the plants, and they will slowly release nitrogen and other nutrients into the soil. Pest repellent: Coffee grounds can be used to repel pests, such as ants, slugs, and snails. Simply sprinkle the coffee grounds around the areas where the pests are present. Deodorizer: Coffee grounds can absorb unpleasant odors. Place a bowl of used coffee grounds in the fridge, freezer, or any other area that needs deodorizing. Skincare: Coffee grounds can be used as a natural exfoliant for the skin. Mix the grounds with a little bit of oil or water to create a paste, and gently scrub the skin in circular motions.
