Cowboy -


Want to do a greywater to some trees, from the washing machine. If I buy the 'eco-friendly' detergent, is that ok? I'm worried that it's 'still soap'.

Do you know of 'grey water' laundry detergent? Or - will i just have to do the treatment/filter like they discuss on the site.

I couldn't find any detergent info - but it seems like it has to be out there??

We water the flowers and trees with return water from the washing machine. They seem to like it.
