Wondering what to do with leftover tea bags, just put them in the bottom of a potted plant to release nutrients into the soil and keep it moist!

I made tea yesterday and when I went to throw the tea bags out I stopped to try to think of how I could still use them for something. Nothing came to mind, though. I'm not planning on planting anything in the near future, but the next time I do I will throw in used tea bags!!

Thanks for posting!!

Anyone have any other uses for used tea bags??

I toss them out in the dirt. Same as coffee grounds - though I don't drink coffee.

You might want to remove the paper part though. I'm sure it is biodegradable but, for experience, I've seen it takes a long time for that to happen.
