    Re: what do you do with your waste?

    Hmmm, cellulite remover and self-tanner all in one application!

    How would you explain to someone why you had big brown blotches on your thights, stomach and bum???

      Re: what do you do with your waste?

      Ill try the dydrangeas, Ive been adding the crumbled pucks to mulch around my roses and have noticed a lack of snails this winter.
      If left on top of the soil the coffee congeals so it needs to be mixed in with the the soil or mulch.
      I empty the drip tray from Maria onto my pot plants and they love it!!

        I do this too! We used to get lots of aphids on our plants until I started doing this, so I secretly wonder if they may be tea drinkers, and have swarmed next door.

          I am going to join in feeding my coffee grinds to the garden...our sand over here needs all the help it can get. Thats a good reason for me to go out and buy that knock-box I have been eyeing off...yay!...previously my coffee mess has gone in the bin but I always wondered if it could be good for the garden.

            Realise that Im digging up an old thread, but just thought Id post a picture of my caffeine addicted Hydrangeas now that they are back in flower. The colour that comes through doesnt fully do it justice, but its not too far off...

              at home I chuck em in the worm farm and at the cafe re recycle our food scraps (including coffee grinds) - in sealed containers to a local community farm and they chuck em in the compost!

                All of mine go into the sandy impoverished soil of our rose garden, roses dont seem to mind, still plenty of aphids and the snail population seems to be thriving, I live in hope. :-/

                  Oh thank god, the title of the thread was very ambiguous...could have gone either way i suppose!

                  Anyhoo...i throw my "waste" on the garden or in the compost!

                    slugs / snails dont like it, but the worms do s

                    i was also told azaleas, rhododendrons, and tomatoes like it too.

                      Yes I heard also great to keep the snails/slugs of plants. Ours just goes into the compost - that will change when the vege patch gets done!
