…your state or country’s health agency and water resource agency were to certify the water safe and if there was no odor to the water?

Most people in the United states don’t realize just how little “new water” is actually available. Also they do not realize the cost of the water. If we had to pay what the water really cost to produce many people would not be able to afford it.

I have been to country’s that recycle waste water for watering. I would not od it myself. I live in an area where water is rationed every summer. I am used to letting my grass turn brown in the summer, less lawnmower time.

yes, and it is being practiced worldwide. you need to have a water treatment equipment to do it.

they already use this water to water some crops so always remember to thoroughly wash ur vegetables.

Any body that lives in a city and has city water uses recycled water that is why they have waste/water treatment plants for and why we have sewers that go to these plantscause they take out the waste and put the water back into use by either putting it back in the ground for there wells to take it or by putting it back into the pipe lines like very large cities have to do.

We had non-potable water on our farm and it was great to know we weren’t wasting the well water.

I’ve used non-potable water or”Grey” water for years for lawn, garden and other non consumable uses. It’s perfectly safe as long as it has been properly treated.

redneckgardendiva on December 24th, 2008 10:11 pm:

Yep…sure would. I use gray water all the time. My plants love it!

poopsie on December 27th, 2008 11:43 am:

Absolutely!

use of gray water in arid ares has done wonders for landscaping. it’s also smart to reuse what you can with any of our resources.
