Sorry about bringing up an old post, but I have a question about coffee grounds and was searching. I love the fact that Starbucks is offering this program and will check in the town I work in to see if they are participating in it.

I don't drink coffee and neither does my husband. My question is if I can't find used coffee grounds at the Starbucks store, can I buy a can of cheap coffee and spread it out among my plants without it being used? I hope I stated that question so it made sense. I would love to have a garden that looked fantastic and flourished. This is my first year to have a garden that is fairly good sized besides my little row of tomato plants the last couple of years. I'm still learning a lot.

I have brandywine, cherry and another type of tomato planted something girl (the name escapes me at the moment) and also some bell peppers planted. Would coffee grounds be good for them since I've heard it is for acid loving plants?

Thanks for any help.
