Making flower fertilizer from coffee grounds: a simple and easy-to-learn flower-growing secret

How to make coffee grounds fertilizer

Growing flowers is a pleasant hobby, but how to provide flowers with enough nutrition has become a key issue. Coffee grounds, as a natural organic fertilizer, can not only solve this problem, but also effectively utilize waste resources. Here is an easy-to-learn method to make coffee grounds flower fertilizer.

Prepare the Materials

First we need to prepare the following materials:

• Fresh coffee grounds: about 500 grams
• Rotten leaves or kitchen waste: appropriate amount
• Water: appropriate amount
• Container: Large bowl or bucket
• Plastic bag or sealed container: used to store fermented coffee grounds fertilizer.

Production process

Step 1:

Pour fresh coffee grounds into a large bowl or bucket and add some rotten leaves or food scraps. These scraps will provide additional organic matter to help the coffee grounds break down better.

Step 2:

Pour in enough water to moisten the coffee grounds and waste. Be careful not to add too much water as this will dilute it too much.

Step 3:

Seal the mixture in a plastic bag or airtight container in a well-ventilated area. Open the bag or container every other day and stir the mixture to help the fermentation process.

Step 4:

&nbs;Keep stirring and watching the fermentation. Normally, it takes about 7-10 days to complete the fermentation process. You will see the mixture start to turn black and emit a special smell.

How to use

Once the coffee grounds fertilizer is fully fermented, it is ready to use. Here is how to use it:

• Sprinkle the coffee grounds fertilizer evenly on the surface of the pot.
• Use your fingers to gently work the fertilizer into the soil, then water it in.
• Repeat every other week to keep the flowers supplied with nutrients.

Precautions

Note 1:

Although coffee grounds fertilizer has many benefits, it is not suitable for all plants. For example, plants that prefer acidic soil and acidic environment will be more suitable for using coffee grounds fertilizer.

Note 2:

&nbs;Avoid overdosing when using coffee grounds fertilizer. Excessive amounts of coffee grounds may cause the soil to become too acidic and harm your plants.
