If you brew coffee and are also a gardener. Were you aware that you can make use of the brewed coffee grounds as a natural fertilizer? That's right! Used coffee grounds, as well as diluted leftover cold black coffee, is great for most plants.
Already brewed coffee grounds are packed full of potassium, magnesium, nitrogen, caffeine, calcium and phosphorus and I have found that they're a great plant food for root vegetable plants such as different varieties of potatoes, radishes, carrots, and turnips, as well as for other garden plants such as herbs, peppers, cucumbers, and broccoli also benefit from the already brewed coffee grounds. Just sprinkle the grounds around the topsoil and allow nature to do the rest of the work. Do this once a week, but sparingly. Always make sure that the coffee grounds aren't left in large clumps.
Coffee grounds change the pH level in the soil, so that's something that you'll have to be careful with. You can neutralize the coffee grounds by mixing them with eggshells to lower the acidic level.
Once this has been done, then the coffee grounds and eggshell fertilizer can be used on tomato plants. I don't advise sprinkling coffee grounds directly on the tomato plant's soil without neutralizing the coffee grounds first, because coffee grounds can sometimes be too acidic. Sprinkle about one cup of this mixture around the base of your tomato plants and onto the topsoil about once a week.
Coffee grounds can also be mixed in with compost piles to neutralize the grounds.
Adding coffee grounds to the soil doesn't only benefit your plants from nutritional standpoints, but it also helps aid in soil drainage and earthworms thrive on it too.
And don't forget that leftover cold coffee can also be used as plant food as well. Just dilute the pot of coffee down first with water before giving your plants a drink.

Fried rice is something that I learned how to make back in the early nineties while watching a Chinese chef (厨师 Chúshī) make house fried rice in a wok. I was simply mesmerized. So much so that I went to the store, bought a wok and went home and made house fried rice for the first time. I have been making it ever since.

There are so many options on the market for greenhouse lighting. Today, I will be discussing which greenhouse lights I prefer to use and tell you why. Initially, I thought I had to spend a lot of money on greenhouse lighting. So I purchased more expensive UFO lights, 4000 watt grow lights and dual head, gooseneck designed grow lights. Each of those works well to a degree. However, later I stumbled on some other LED lights that I have had a lot better luck with for growing vegetable plants, house plants, and fruit trees inside.
If you're looking for new ways to make the use of every dollar, this might be intriguing information to you. Most of us love bananas.

Wal-Mart Supercenter at Newport, Ar/ Are there food shortages?Gin Lee. In Newport, Arkansas, there don't seem to be any real food shortages nor anywhere else near my location.

Treat your dogs with all natural rawhide treats to not only make them happy but also to promote healthy gums and teeth. My recipe for homemade pork hides doesn't have any seasoning added to them. They're just one hundred percent healthy treats with zero additives. Dogs don't care if their treats are seasoned, and they definitely don't need to eat anything with salt added to it. All your fur baby wants is a delicious meaty tasting treat. These all natural pork hides always get my Boxer dog extremely excited.
Chicken has never been more finger licking than the BBQ I've prepared today. It's spicy and juicy with every bite. I often cook different meats straight from the freezer because I get so busy that honestly I sometimes forget to thaw anything. It takes fifty percent longer to cook when it's frozen. This recipe is for barbecuing a whole chicken when it's frozen. However, for a whole chicken that is thawed, follow the recipe but cook the bird for about one hour and twenty-five minutes (after the first thirty-forty minutes take the chicken out of the oven and add the BBQ sauce. Then transfer the bird back to the oven).
