Go green with ... Coffee / El cafe y tu jardin
Do you love drinking coffee? What about sharing your coffee with your garden?
I can already feel the first signs of spring... have you heard the birds chirping in the morning lately? I was missing those sounds so much! And I am so ready for gardening this year! I can't wait to start planting some tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers and hot peppers.
But did you know that you can actually use coffee for a beautiful, healthy garden? Yes, coffee works as a natural pesticide and fertilizer, you can combine the grounds with eggshells and surround your plants with the mix or you can spray your plants with some coffee/water solution.
Coffee is great for the plants because it is rich in nitrogen, which is essential in helping plants to grow.
Coffee is also excellent for roses, it makes them more colorful and even larger.
So if you want a beautiful garden... share your coffee with your plants, do not discard the wet grounds, filters and bags, they can help you protect your garden even from insect infestation just by sprinkling your plants with the grounds, or just add the filters and tea bags in your compost piles (they disintegrate very easily)
So, if you want a better garden this year... Use coffee!
Enjoy!

Te encanta tomar cafe? Espero que si! Que tal te parece compartir tu cafe con tu jardin?
Ya puedo sentir los primeros signos de la primavera...has escuchado a los pajaros cantar en la manana ultimamente? Cuanto extranaba esos sonidos! Estoy mas que lista para comenzar a trabajar en mi jardin! Ya no puedo esperar mas para comenzar a plantar tomates, pepinos, pimientos y distintos chiles... No se... veremos que mas podemos plantar...
Pero, sabias que puedes usar cafe para tener un jardin hermoso y saludable? Si, el cafe funciona genial como un pesticida y fertilizante natural, puedes combinarlo con cascarones de huevo y rodear tus plantas con el o rociarlas con una solucion a base de agua y cafe.
El cafe es magnifico para las plantas porque es rico en nitrogeno, el cual es esencial en ayudar al crecimiento de las plantas.
El cafe tambien es buenisimo para las rosas, las hace mas coloridas y aun mas grandes.
Asi que si quieres un jardin hermoso, no desheches los filtros ya usados de cafe, te pueden ayudar a proteger tu jardin aun de una infestacion de insectos simplemente si rocias los asientos de cafe antes de regar tus plantas, o agrega los filtros con los residuos de cafe a tu composta (se desintegran muy facilmente)
Asi que si quieres un mejor jardin este 2009, Usa cafe!
Provecho!
