Well, whether or not coffee is good for plants depends on the pH level in your area's soil. If your soil has more alkaline in it then yes, coffee is spectacular for plants. So, essentially, it really depends on what kind of soil you have.

Coffee grounds can be beneficial to plants as they provide nutrients like nitrogen and potassium, which can improve soil fertility. However, coffee grounds are acidic, so they should be used in moderation and mixed with other compost materials to prevent soil pH from becoming too low, which can negatively impact plant growth. Overall, using coffee grounds as a part of compost or mulch can help improve soil structure and provide some nutrients to support plant growth.

Coffee as grounds or as a liquid may be a source of water and nutrients for plants. Plants need adequate levels of moisture, light and air to grow. Their needs can be met in many ways, one of which is coffee as a drink or as grounds.

Coffee production is demanding on soil. It depletes the soil of necessary nutrients, and puts them inside the growing coffee plant. Those nutrients are released when coffee as a drink is poured into soil. They also are released when coffee grounds are allowed to break down and allow the formerly trapped nutrients back into the ground.
