BUTTSβ¦are you putting yours to good use? Have you thought about harvesting grey water? Iβve installed a water butt to collect shower water to use on the flower beds. If you decided to give this a go just be careful not to use grey water on anything you want to eat and ensure that water is used promptly to reduce the risk of bacterial growth. The RHS have an article about grey water and say it can be used for up to 6 weeks in periods of drought. Hereβs a link to the article. https://www.rhs.org.uk/science/gardening-in-a-changing-world/water-use-in-gardens/using-grey-water
