You are talking about picloram. This persistent herbicide has been
eaten by cows and horses, composted at 150 degrees and that compost
still had enough picloram to do major damage to (mostly) the night
shade family or solanacea.

For newbies: Peppers & tomatoes are in the solanacea family.




Any idea why the water would be "milky" or should the wife get checked for
glacoma?


More than likely the water in the pipes was cold and had dissolved air in
it. The hose was warm, and the air came out of solution because of the
decrease in pressure and the increase in temperature. When the hose cooled
to the same temperature as the water, the dissolved air coming out of
solution due to just the drop in pressure wasn't enough to make it cloudy.

Also, if it was a rubber hose it may have had a thin coating of talcum
powder or cornstarch inside leftover from manufacturing.
