Growing outside next to washing-machine drainage?

Growing outside next to washing-machine drainage, would it be safe?

doesn't like a good idea to have your plant in soil with laundry detergent being poured in to it!

YUM YUM Bubble bud.

I dunno, seemed like as long as the actual soap doesnt touch the plants it may get filtered enough. I didn't mean directory in it, just a few feet away...

The grass and weeds seem to thrive there so...

i was gonna ask about the grass. my mom had a tomatoe plant that was growing under the exhaust outlet from her dryer. the thing got frickin' HUGE!!!!! biggest tomatoe plant i ever saw. there were others nearby that didn't get the heat that weren't half the size.
if the grass is still living, then.............
i'd try it.

Did she eat it and grow any new limbs? Or did it taste like laundry detergent?

That's actually what I wondering, if it's safe.

If all that is used is laundry detergent that could be fine. But if bleach is used that could do very severe damage or even kill your plant. Any pretreats could also do severe damage.

are there usually other shrubs growing in the drainage area? it shouldnt be a problem unless the detergent is changing the ph, nutrient lockout could be an issue. But if other plants can grow there marajuanna probably has a good chance, did you know they plant hemp of burried landfills? the plant is good at absorbing toxins and growing in toxic soil...

I water my shrubs using gray water (water from washing machine) but always divert that water when using bleach. Some people because they use gray water don't use bleach at all. Depends on your own situation. But good question is anything else growing in that area?

hell i would never put anything but clean water into my plants. i even use exclusivly reverse osmosis water.

Yeah there is a lot growing in the area that is why I thought it may work, the drainage is a few feet away from where I would plant them though so I figured it would be ok since the oter plants seems to like it...

Maybe there is also something else I could run the drainage through to filter it before it hits the ground?

all i know is that whatever heavy metals or radioactivity in that water will most likely get absorbed into the plant and you may be smoking those chemicals later on. of course the plant will probably be fine, and many organic and chemical fertalizers do the same thing, but you may be adding toxins to your smoke...

lot's of phosphates! bud booster.


beaner makes a good point though, whatever you're washing off the clothes is going into the transpiration stream of the plant.... you're not a commercial herbicide applicator are you? lol

yeah most people don't know that miracle grow is full of radioactive junk, or that bone and blood meal come from from fish and have lots of lead and murcury in them. I became obsessed with trying to grow a "clean" pot for over a year, and eventually decided that the better bud i grow the less i will have to smoke and the less chemicals i should be absobing with it. I now use osmocote time release fertalizer almost exclusivly, one of the highest in radioactivity.lol grow on, i bet it will be a great spot.

Heavy metals and radioactivity in laundry detergents? I use pretty mild stuff, the stuff recommended for people with skin allergies.
