Disposing of lime water
    #14478510 - 05/19/11 12:59 PM (12 years, 8 months ago)

Is it safe to pour lime water down the sink as long as I run fresh water with it?  How about outdoors poured into gravel area?

I have been wondering about this too.  Used water is pretty herbicidal too.  Twice used doubly so.

Adjust the ph and dilute.  You could get a "y connector" and add freshwater to your drain siphon flow.

maybe after you take a shower or do a load of laundry... that way the septic grey water will be diluted even more.    If your on city septic just flush it with your pet alligator.

If you have a gravel driveway, it's a good natural method to control weeds.  I'd avoid putting it down the drain, especially if you have a septic tank.

No, i got city sewage so I might just dilute and put it down the drain, but ill remember to use it for weed control too.

I commend those on being environmentally friendly with their waste. You can always buy hydrochloric acid to neutralize your water, or concentrated citric acid. Just use a pH strip to ensure the pH is nuetral before disposing.
