#6 – Grow Your Own Oyster Mushrooms
Used coffee grounds make an excellent substrate for these gastronomic delights!
Oyster mushrooms are the easiest mushrooms to grow. However, most people grow them on pasteurized straw.
However, if you use coffee grounds to promote plant growth, when you brew your coffee you are automatically pasteurizing your mushroom substrate!
All you need is a container with soil to put your coffee grounds in and some mushrooms to get you started.
#7 – What can coffee be used for? – Keep neighboring cats away
Humans and cats don’t always think alike. While we relish the smell of freshly ground coffee beans and freshly brewed coffee, cats are repelled by the same coffee aroma!
So, if you have neighborhood kitties (or your own cats) digging up your garden, try spreading coffee grounds in the soil or around the edge of your garden!
Last advice
If you don’t drink coffee at home, or you don’t drink enough coffee to provide the soil and plants for your garden, many coffee shops like Starbucks will give away their land for free!
You can also ask any coffee shop or restaurant you frequent to save your ground coffee for you and they will probably oblige. You can thank them later by bringing them some beautiful fresh flowers or fresh vegetables from the garden.
