Using Duck "Grey" water

[gmendoza]

Anyone else on here but me use the ducks "grey" water in the garden?

I know the water from their pools are not grey,by far,but its seemed to sprout out the plants.

Anyone make a rig to pump the grey duck water to the garden,or are you bailing it out 5 gallons at a time and carrying it to the garden like me?

Sadly, my duck pool is nowhere near my garden area, or I'd do it in a heartbeat!

You can make a manure tea with it. all you need is a big water proof plastic or rubber garbage can with wheels. dump the water in there then wheel the garbage can over to your garden. Just understand that if you water your garden with it, wash any vegetables thoroughly to ensure you don't run the risk of bacteria remaining from the duckies bottoms. But that runs true from using any food product really.

If you want you can add some liquid sea weed to it or some extra trace minerals while your at it. If you're not sure how to make manure tea there are great sites online you can look up. just type in "manure tea" in a search engine and there are all sorts of recipes to suit every gardener's need.
