Summer is almost on us (though it looks as though a frost is possible on
Monday) and if the forecasters are correct then it will be long and hot.
So what waste water is or is not acceptable to the garden? Will
soap, detergent, washing powder biological/non-biological, bath and
shower products render it useless? Any advice welcomed, by me and
perhaps many others.
TIA



I have a diverter on my downpipe that sends all the rain water from the roof
and waste water from the bathroom to my water butt. I've never had any
problems using this to water the garden, and despite rumours, I use soap
regularly!
