If your composting, worms love it, and I believe it is a nitrogen sourse.
grind it with egg shells to balance the PH.(like mondaypurp. said, coffee grounds only)

thats the way to do it, your not planing on putting coffee and egg shells in your dead potted soil right, coffee is a great source of nitrogen but i wouldnt put it in dead soil you need microbial activity to break that stuff down

If your growing organics, it's very good to add coffee grounds with egg shells, great organic matter, worms love it, great food for them.

so i can go to starbucks and get this?? that doesnt sound right, starbucks dont give shit out for free, let me know how you get it cus im walkin up there right when u get down tellin me. the only thing free at starbucks is the internet, i think...
LOL yes Starbucks is the devil, but they really do give away thier old coffee grounds. I found out when they had them in a basket next to the counter. If you don't see it when you go in ask a counterperson what they do with their old coffee grounds - bet you an 1/8 they had you a 5 lb bag and say it's free 
On a side note - why can I get a Starbucks in Canada but I can't get a chili and a doughnut from Hortons in Seattle!! I really think Hortons was created for potheads.

I just got a big ol bag of used grounds the otherday
Im wondering though, how much per parts soil should it be used in.. I DO just plan on tossing it to my plants when they begin to flower..
I just moved overseas, and finding growing supplies hasnt been easy to say the least..
I am forced to use CFLs which I have 6 75 watt CFLs(3=2800k + 3=6500k)
i want to go as much organic as possible.. Its not easy, but i found several different soils Im going to play around with..
The bloom fert. I plan on using is the one
http://canedocare.tripod.com/id12.html
IDK if its even 100% organic, but it is found in about every store in town.. So I got some 7-3-3 for veg which Im not worried about at all...
IDK really how often it should be used though.. Since the blooming fert lacks the nitrogen I was hoping to sub. some coffee grounds, and eggshells to help with the PH.. Lime is almost impossible to find
I did find this interesting link on various NPKs for many different potential natural, and organic ferts
Primalseeds - % composition of materials
Would, or could this work? Any thoughts or suggestions?

could someone please respond.. I only have a few seeds, I brought with me, I live in a completely different country.. I cant read the writing, and NEED to find the easiest organic nutes I can.. I have found molasses.. I want to give my plants the best start possible..
Unlike other people who live where weed is commercially around, here ITS NOT..
So I MUST get growing, and cloning DOWN pat, if Im going to be able to get my own smoke..
Only thing I can find here is LOW GRADE hash.. I was able to bring a few seeds with me..
Once they are gone THEY ARE GONE, and I will be screwed.. So its VERY important I get as much info on growing, and using the BEST, and most easily avaible organic nute as I can..
Sry to seem pushy here, but I havent had any real weed in almost a fucking year, and Im going nuts.. I just started a few seeds in some damp paper towels, and I really really need to know how things like coffee, egg shells or molasses could be used..
I cant read ANY of writing here, and havent been able to find ANY GROW stores.. ONLY small garden centers in supermarkets..
Ill put it this way.. Walmart has 10x the grow supplies then ANYTHING I found in this lame ass country! SO I need to learn how I can possible use these things for my growing project!

I was in a Starbucks, somewhere in Indiana I think one Sunday morning, and they offered to me the grinds out of the blue. (great 1000+ miles from home and free stuff)
On the compost concept. Indoors or outdoors?
Outdoors leaves you open to bugs and such.
(well, indoors will to, but a whole lot less. But ya gotta deal with the smell.)
