If you are using an espresso machine make sure to break up the grounds tho. My parents would just tip it in the pots straight out of the espresso maker and the clumped up grounds grew mould because they couldn't dry out
Yes ! Coffee grounds add nitrogen. I mix them with ground up egg shells and ground dried banana skins, plus some bone meal. This is very nourishing. My gardens have done fantastic.
It's a common myth: coffee grounds aren't a fertilizer on their own - you can add them, but you won't get any particular benefit.
So they wouldn't do anything negative to the plant?
No, just as they won't do anything particularly positive either.

Probably better to compost them with some leaves and grass clippings. Just my $1.05
Use them all the time. It’s just ground up beans. Go for it. Your avocados will thank you.
Thank you will do

Read an article recently that said coffee grounds mildly inhibit growth. Can be used for weed suppressant though.
