Horseshoe said:On a good note, this means you can use the spent grounds to your hearts content knowing you aren't increasing the acid level of your soil but rather feeding some good nitrogen to the soil (or rather feeding the bacteria that turn it into N), increasing earthworm population (and their happiness!), and as mentioned above, composting and recycling. Ta-dahh! :>)Shoe

Thank you Shoe ... this is great information to know ... a garden can never have too many earthworms!
Gymgirl said:Can spent coffee ground safely be thrown onto a rosebed? I have a pretty yellow rosebush that I'd love to propagate and boost up with some type of inexpensive additives. I can get spent coffee grinds by the bucketsful!
