Default Polluted soil repair?




"Cab" wrote in message

Hi folks,

I wonder if someone can give me some advice. I'd finished some painting
using water based paints and had just washes the brushes, etc, in a
bucket of water. I, inadvertently, poured this water over a patch of
soil in the garden (yes, yes, I know, I know) and now I'm on vision
only with SWMBO as she's complaining that the soil is now polluted.

What's the score? How long would it take for the soil to repair itself?
Is there anything I can do to help it out?

Any assistance gratefully received.

Chuck some more buckets of clean water over it and it should dilute it.
Water based not too much problem I wouldn't think
