RE: Comparing (eco)toxicity of commercial and home-made laundry detergents... as expected, results are appalling...
Great post! I’m always interested in eco friendly detergents. I use the grey water in the garden. I make sure not to pour it directly on the plants, just around the base.
Thank you.
Humm, I wouldn't use too much of grey water for your garden, and even if you use basic eco-soap: It is not because a detergent is eco-friendly that it does not have chemical properties while it is active... (Being eco-friendly means that a compound degrades readily and the degradation products are harmless for nature).
I have a garden too , and will probably get active on this with the return of warmer days. You should also follow my friend Delphine (@Delph-in-holland), she is a gardener and very much into developing and using nature-friendly solutions to gardener problems!
For example, we rent a larger common garden together, and we are testing / using permaculture techniques.
thank you for the reply, i will take your advice. I will start to follow her as well. i enjoy gardening posts!
