Save your water save your money!

If you are on a water meter and you need to water your garden, you can help save money by using so-called grey water for watering plants.

If you wash vegetables before cooking them, save that water in a bucket. Got some tea or coffee left in the pot?

Add that to the bucket, too! You can also use washing up water, but some gardeners reckon you should only use this if you buy eco-friendly washing up liquid, but it's up to you. If it works for you, then that's fine!

You can use this water direct from the bucket or you can put it in a watering can, though you'll have to ensure tea leaves, etc., don't block the holes if you have a rose on the spout!
