Hi
On our allotment is an old freezer (chest) chock-full of water. Obviously the water is still, but there are boatman etc in it.
We want to get rid of it because it is fugly - do you think that we could use the water on the allotment?
Cheers :)

Re: Old water...Safe to use?
If it's OK for the boatmen, it's OK for the plants. Just don't brew tea with it.

I wouldn't water your tomatoes with it though. They are quite sensitive and seem to need clean water.

Thanks for the "heads-up" (Cucurbits too are a bit fussy like that)
