g'day higgs,

take a look at how we do ours scan down page about 1/2 way, we then
use one of thosecigar sahped 12volt bilge pumps with a car battery
pack charger (bought at auto accessories shop) to pump water out with,
the drum could be put on astand and have tap a the bottom, this way no
mossies ever,no evaporation either.

think about putting in a rain wate tank of at least 15k litre capacity
collect a substantial amount of water, our tank is 22.5k/l. water is
important stuff.

Message I posted a while ago didn't get through. I was asking (I
think NAD) what he/she put in the barrels to keep the water from
getting contaminated or breeding mosquitoes w/o harming plants that
drank that water.

Anybody?

Matthew 25:13 KJV
"Watch therefore, for ye know neither
the day nor the hour wherein the Son
of man cometh"

Mark 13:33 "Take ye heed, watch and pray:
for ye know not when the time is".

and also: Isaiah 38:1&17-18 KJV

1: Thus saith the Lord, set thine house in order: for thou shalt die and not live.
17: for thou hast cast all my sins behind my back.
18: For the grave cannot praise thee, death cannot celebrate thee: they that go down in the pit cannot hope for truth.
