  • Bath and sink water on the veg

    I couldn't understand how my new water butt filled up over 2 nights in such hot weather, when I suddenly realised that the down-pipe it's connected to is also used fr my bathroom's bath and sink water disposal.
    It got me slightly concerned because this means I've been tipping gallons of old soapy, shampooey, bubble-bathy water onto my veg patch.
    The veg doesn't seem too bthered by it, but does anyone think this might be an issue?

    Cheers

    You use soapy water to kill off bugs- so I wouldn't have thought so -for now.
    Are you able to use non-bio bath/shower soaps from now on????
    (I wonder what toothpaste would do to the bugs....might end up with bright shiny gnashers!!!!!)

      You shouldn't store "grey" (dirty) water, because it contains bacteria (just think what bits you have washed in your bathwater)

      It is fine to use straight away though, fresh as possible
