Reusing ~ do not throw food scraps into the trash bin! (part 4)

 For plant lovers

Do you have coffee or tea for breakfast? What do you do with the remains? Do not discard them! Let them dry and add them to the soil you use for your plants.

Coffee grinds are good as fertilizers as they contain many nutrients – nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium, calcium and magnesium. They also better soil structure and help to aerate it.

Tea leaves (or the content of tea bags) are acidic, so they do not work for any plant. Use them with roses and ferns.
