I use tea bags as a compost additive - every few days, I take all the used tea bags outside, rip them open and empty the tea leaves into my bag of compost and mix it in well. I also use whole tea bags (used) to block the drainage holes in plant pots - it stops soil from leaking out, helps retain the water in the soil and provides nutrients to the roots of the plants.

[@Limerick24]

Are they good for succulents also thanks in advance.

[@hildakane9600]

Thank you Debbie for this information, I'm definitely going to try it. Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪 🌻

[@missdebbie100]

@@Limerick24 I've used them for succulents, both mixed into the potting compost and to line the bottoms of pots. However, if you're using to line the bottom of a pot you should remember that they will retain water for longer than soil, so be careful not to overwater your succulents if you've got whole tea bags in the bottom of the pot.

I mix the tea with coffee grounds and put on my garden and outside pot plants

[@PeacePlease.]

I save my tea bags, let them dry - then empty out all the dried up tea into a container & use it as fertilizer for plants. Be sure to rinse thorroughly if you use sugar/milk in your tea, or simply make it a habit to add them after removing tea bag. EXCELLENT FOR PLANTS, BTW!! Green tea fixes damaged or plants that have problems - it acts like a vitamin. I even use it for my trees!?

If you live near the coast and know how often one’s car gets targeted by seagulls…………try a damp used teabag to clean the splash marks off the car. Works immediately and doesn’t damage the surface, or leave smears on the windows. This is a good tip that I read in a magazine back in the 1960s.
