Did you know you can fertilize your vegetable garden with your coffee grounds? After enjoying your coffee, spoon the grounds into a container. Lightly scratch them into the soil of your garden once a week. Take care not to have the grounds pile up as this can create a water barrier preventing watering reaching the roots. The nitrogen from the coffee grounds will feed and nourish the plants. I have been using this method on my lettuce and tomatoes. I have several large tomatoes on the vines. Once we are of the rain pattern we're in past several days, the summer sun will help ripen these beauties. I have been cutting the lettuce and using to make delicious heathy salads for our meals.
