If you want, you can use coffee grounds as mulch to support healthier and prevent waterlogging issues.
14 – Cucumbers
For cucumber growth, coffee grounds aid in maintaining good soil structure and retaining moisture. The slow-releasing nitrogen in the coffee helps the plant better develop root systems and support more vigorous fruiting, which directly translates to higher fruit yield.
13 – Basil
Since coffee grounds boost nitrogen levels in the soil, basil is a herb that significantly benefits from that boost. Higher nitrogen content supports lush and vigours leaf growth in a basil plant and improves soil structure for the plant to thrive.
12 – Rosemary
Rosemary is the perfect winter herb that just oozes the essence of Christmas. Coffee grounds can help a rosemary plant maintain the acidity it needs in the soil and help with the development of its root system.
11 – Mint
Mint requires aeration and drainage for the best growth and reducing chances of root rot. Coffee grounds help with this by improving soil structure and providing plenty of nitrogen that supports new and healthy leaf growth.
