Water Your Garden with De-Humidifier Water

Watering your garden during the long hot Summer can be a daunting task. Many organic gardeners collect rain water to avoid using household water, which may have chemicals in it. Another excellent source of un-contaminated water is your de-humidifier. Most of us who have basements have to use a de-humidifier to keep the humidity under control during the Summer. Some folks simply let the water run directly into their sump pump. But for years we’ve been depositing the water from our de-humidifier into a 5 gallon plastic bucket and carrying it upstairs to use to water plants. The water is clean and uncontaminated and easy to disperse. You just have to be sure you empty the de-humidifier daily and you’ll be surprised how much water you don’t have to use from other sources.
