Can I add coffee grounds on top of my cover crop that has just started to come up?

Spread it evenly so there aren't suffocating piles. The worms will do the rest. :o)

Thanks guys, I was hoping it was okay, cause I only noticed the mold on the way out of the bag...what is in the mold? Should I develope a set of aged coffee grounds? Might be the new best thing???LOL Peace, Wayne

Wayne...........try pouring hot water through it. It will still be better coffee than McDoogles serves fresh. :)
