A time-tested remedy that protects against pests and improves soil quality.
Experienced gardeners do not send one kitchen waste to the trash, but collect it and use it in the spring.
We are talking about coffee grounds. Fertilizer and pest control in one bottle, say experienced gardeners.
It is believed that this remedy protects plants from snails and ants.
The former are deterred by the texture, while the latter are repelled by the smell.
It is enough to scatter the grounds near plants that are regularly attacked by snails, say summer residents.
However, not everyone confirms the effectiveness of this remedy in terms of pest control.
But all gardeners agree that coffee grounds improve the composition of the soil and make the soil loose.
Coffee lovers can easily collect enough of this material for 1–2 beds during the winter.
The dried grounds are also poured into flower pots for the same purpose.
