So to all my dehumidifier users. I empty my dehumidfier every other day. I got curious and checked my PH. 6.3 So I wondered does anyone reuse thier water. You would think it would be more nutrient rich, than my rain water im pouring in to them. Rain water in, plants drink and release. U would think its a win-win. What do u think??

Hey fditty I use it on my coir and my soil plants. It has less ppm's than my city water. I adjust the ph of it and all my water.

The water from your dehumidifier can have a multitude of bacteria that buildup on the coil as well as high levels of copper and other heavy metals such as lead. I wouldn't use it but that's just me.
