Brow, Grey, and potable,are each distinct and while you can filter and re-use Grey water for gardening(Generally water that is used for washing- hence the grey color) and potentially drinking with some sterilization (Boiling or bleach). Brown water on the other hand (Basically toilet water) Should not, in my opinion, be used for anything else. The chances of catching something really bad is just to high.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02961779148258290491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6815125789194062274.post-78097851406892258052010-08-04T17:29:23.021-07:002010-08-04T17:29:23.021-07:00As far as canning goes, I don't know if one ca...As far as canning goes, I don't know if one can do that with tomatoes and zucchini but if you'd like to give it a shot Brendan and I have an overabundance of both. He doesn't eat the zucchini because he "doesn't like it" and I won't eat any more of it after 2 or 3 years in a row of eating so much of it. Take it. Please...<br /><br />And Brendan has one very important rule as far as his vegetable garden goes and that is, "Mom isn't allowed to touch the plants." I have proven time and time again that any plant I touch will die. I'm just unlucky that way, I guess. :P<br /><br />On a more serious note, one should also be sure to keep water designated for drinking well out of the way of water used for anything else. Here's a link to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website's Safe Water System program: http://www.cdc.gov/safewater/ It's used very successfully in the so-called "developing" world and has prevented countless deaths from cholera, shigella, rotavirus and other microbes that cause waterborne diarrhea.Astreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00857070389536554616noreply@blogger.com
