Old hose: harmful compounds?
My hosepipe -- presumably reinforced pvc -- has been around for a long
time, and I've just noticed that when I use it to fill a watering-can the first couple of gallons are very frothy. At first I thought it was traces of the washing-up liquid I sometimes use a drop of as a wetting agent, but it's definitely the hose itself. Question for the scientists: I assume I'm seeing products of the breakdown of the material, so are they likely to be harmful to plants, life, the planet, and everything? Mike. |
