Post #3660601

I'm widening the discussion here that started on another forum because I'd like to get a variety of opinions.

Starbucks (and some other coffee shops) gladly give used coffee grounds away free. Apparently they are good to use around the plants even if you have an acidic soil. Who has used them and what is your experience? How often and how thickly do you apply and what positive (or negative!) results have you seen?

Up-to-date, I have only used my own grounds which I throw in the compost.
