Rain Barrel - Soil sealant ??
I found a place selling big plastic drums (55 gal?) for $10 each. But my
question is related to the fact that they are barrels that used to have "Emulsified Soil Sealant" in them. Now they are pretty much empty with a little liquid at the bottom, and the sticker on top says that it's non-toxic, and totally safe. But is it safe to rinse out the rest of the barrel (after cutting the top off), and using it for a rain-barrel for watering plants? |

Sure - rinse and dump a few times and whatever is in there is diluted by thousands.
