@mel_dub1: Are coffee grounds good for plants? ☕🌱 This is one of the most common plant myths I get asked about and the answer is no, not for houseplants. Coffee grounds aren’t fertilizer. The nitrogen is locked up and has to be broken down by microbes first, which works in compost and gardens… not in pots on your shelf. Coffee grounds → gardens, not houseplants. Save this for the next time someone tells you to caffeinate your plants ☕🌿
A teaspoon is great for pests. I think it all depends on how much you use and for what plants but great tip

Thank you, Melissa. I will take my coffee grinds off the countertop as I’ve been collecting and throw them in the garbage.

Funny as I read this one this morning. Which since I have been following you and seeing so much misinformation floating I doubt what I do know lol. But I do have a question about what would be a good soil for a Money plant and a Lucky Bamboo? There is more of the info confusion about growing Lucky in water but read they prefer growing in soil so I come to you for enlightenment lol. Thanks
