Q: I'm keen to conserve water in my garden wherever possible as I live in a climate regularly affected by drought. My friends are talking about using bath water to irrigate their plants. As I'm very eco-minded I'm keen to try this too. But is it safe for my plants?
A: Using bath water as part of your plant watering routine is something many people are considering in the bid to save water and help the environment but there are a few issues surrounding the advisability of doing this before you make up your mind. Especially as you don't want to make garden watering mistakes that might harm your plants.
