ive been given a 3L pot of coffee grounds from the local cafe. 

I have heard that it is good for the garden?

can someone give me some advise of the best way to use them? 

Thanks

    Some layer them round plants to keep off slugs, I just add them to the compost bins

    Coffee grounds still contain a fair amount of nutrients, I sprinkle them around the garden and lightly fork in as you would wood ash.

    They only really deter slugs if dry unfortunately! image
