@Catawu Thinking I will wait longer, but I do think I'll move some of these into pots near the house, maybe try a few as houseplants.
@ai6yr It’s harder to untangle them when they get older. Their roots spread laterally more than you’d guess. Then they get ‘touchy’ about being moved. Single them as soon as you can. As singles, much easier to xplant.
@ai6yr coffee grounds are highly acidic. Most plants don't tolerate acid soil. You should restrict how much you put in the garden or on a compost heap because of this. Yet another reason to drink tea...
@UkeleleEric Actually, not... but even if they were, would not be a problem here in our part of the world, which is basic soil.

@elebertus Yep. I let the earthworms turn it over.
@ai6yr do you just huck the coffee grounds into a pile? I should probably be doing that too heh
@ai6yr oh boy start potting them in big ass barrels.
