Coffee is very useful for a whole host of different things that you just would not think about. From using as an ant killer to making compost, cleaning drains to cleaning greasy ashtrays, you will be amazed just what ordinary coffee that you have at home can be used for. Here is my top 10 favourites.
1. To get rid of ants put used coffee grounds onto the ant hills, this will have to be done for each hill as the pesky things will move to another home.
2. Kitchen drains tend to get smelly, simply get a cup of coffee grounds and tip down the plughole making sure you tip a kettle of boiling water down slowly & leave to work on the odours
3. For a quick fix on fabrics soak garment in strong black unsugared coffee, this is an inexpensive way to dye clothes brown in an emergency but remember it will not be colour fast.
4. Coffee grounds can be used to clean any stain resistant surface, it has a mild & gentle abrasive element & smells fresh too, particularly good for smelly ashtrays and greasy surfaces.
5. To help plants to flourish add coffee to your soil, this is best done in small amounts of soil so you can add 1 cup of lime to balance acidity if need be, another way is to empty it straight onto your compost pile with other kitchen waste.
6. Fishermen, when transporting maggots & worms put them in a container with moist coffee grounds & they will be easier to pick up when you need them & they also like coffee as much as we do so it will make them live longer too.
7. Coffee can be used as an odour neutraliser if there is a powercut & the food in the freezer defrosts & goes off, simply fill a bowl or two with new or used coffee & leave in the freezer over night.
8. When it comes to cleaning/sweeping out open fires sprinkle some used coffee grounds over the hearth or wherever you have to clean & it will sweep up easier & stop the coal dust from rising up in your room so better for environment.
9. Gardeners if you grow carrots add some coffee to your seeds before sowing, not only does this make the seeds easier to sow, the smell also repels root maggots & other pests allowing for thicker juicy carrots.
10. Many people take exception to neighbours cats using their garden as a toilet, a mixture of used coffee grounds and & orange peel put round plants and in beds you want left alone will provide a pungent smell that cats do not like and so will find someone else's garden to use.
All of the above tips are great ways to use up all the used coffee grounds that would otherwise just be put down the drain or in the bin, why not put it to good use.

Master gardeners agree that compost produced by worms will produce the best results and help your plants thrive. The Worm Factory's unique stackable, multi-tray design makes it the most efficient worm bin composter around. Worms begin eating waste in the lowest tray, and then migrate upward as food sources in that tray are exhausted. By allowing worms to migrate upward, the worms separate themselves from the finished compost that is ready for the garden. Besides the worm castings that are produced through this process, the Worm Factory also produces a second type of compost. As waste is broken down, moisture filters through your Worm Factory, taking nutrient-rich particles with it. This liquid fertilizer, know as leachate is gathered in the special collection tray of the Worm Factory and can easily be drained from the spigot. Simply add a handful of worms and your organic waste to the bottom tray. The worms will start processing the food. Once the bottom tray is filled add another tray. The worms migrate upward to the newest food source leaving the bottom tray full of nutrient rich compost. As waste is broken down, moisture filters through the system taking nutrient-rich particles with it. You can drain organic liquid fertilizer right from the spigot. It's compact square design gives the Worm Factory the smallest footprint of all worm composters. The Worm Factory's tray stacking system allows it to hold the largest capacity of compost in the smallest amount of space, making it the perfect composter for anyone with space limitations. The Worm Factory is simple to operate. When full, each tray weighs only 12.5 pounds making lifting and arranging trays effortless. The included 16-page instruction manual makes setup fast and easy and gives tips on how to best manage your Worm Factory composter year-round.

Backyard Gardens are popping all over the country, as people look for ways to save money and grow fresh food. A cheap bucket garden is simple and can be very inexpensive way to get started... Essentially, a small bucket garden can be created with little to no expense. Whether it is a tin garden bucket, plastic garbage can or old cardboard box, any container you come across can fulfill the basic requirements and act as a container for your garden. When deciding to begin your bucket garden, it is more important to spend your money to get the best bang for your buck; seed, plants and potting soil etc.
Your container garden can be made up from literally anything that constitutes a box, pot or container that you have lying around that can hold soil and your vegetable crops. A plastic 5 gallon bucket used to grow your vegetables and herbs can be very beneficial in several ways:
1. One of the benefits of a container garden is its portability. If you live in a home that does not provide optimal conditions for a stationary garden, bucket gardens can provide the flexibility you need.
2. A bucket garden is a little tougher for animals to access and can be surrounded by fencing if needed. Because bucket gardens stand a foot or 2 above ground, they are more difficult for bunnies and other intruders to get to.
3. If you live in a condo or apartment, access to a private plot of land to grow vegetables may not be available. The large 5 gallon container can provide a small area for you to have your own piece of land for the herbs and vegetables you desire.
4. Plastic 5 gallon buckets are durable and can be used to hold multiple crops. A Pizza Bucket could contain grow basil, onion, and a tomato plant. Everything you need to add to a fresh pizza when ready for harvesting. A great project for your young one to get them involved in gardening.
Some of the easiest ways to get started are listed below when thinking about your own garden projects:
How to make a hanging Bucket Planter for the price of a cup of coffee - A hanging bucket planter is easy to make for growing upside down tomatoes. You do not need fancy infomercials to grow a tomato upside down and can be made in 10 minutes with a standard bucket.
How to find items in your shed or garage to make a bucket garden planter - Your garage or shed is a great source for buckets and containers items that are just lying around. You can have some great containers already stacked up in a corner somewhere that would work well in the garden.
Make a Free Standing Bucket planter - A free standing bucket planter can easily be made from empty 2 liter soda bottles you use every day. Cutoff the bottom, attach to a free standing pole, add some soil and you are ready to grow some herbs or other plants like jalapeno peppers.
How to make simple compost bin - Every bucket garden needs a source of rich compost. Making a free compost box from discarded pallets is one way to go. In less than 30 minutes you can have your own compost box. You can also make a compost Bin from a simple trash can. If you have a large trash can lying around, it is easy to turn it into a compost bin in less than 5 minutes. Self contained and ready to go to hold your grass clippings, rotting leaves and kitchen scraps.
Most organic material can be added to your compost to create "black gold". Stinky rotten vegetables are your best items to assist in the decomposition process. However, there are things that should not go into your compost bin. Items like meat, bones and dog feces are taboo items to put into your compost. These things can bring unwanted pests into your yard and cause unnecessary issues.
In summary, making a bucket garden is easy and very inexpensive. You can create it from existing materials lying in your shed or garage and along with a simple compost bin, you can grow awesome vegetables for your table.
