I have used grey waters for years on my plants. Mainly hostas though.
I have found that it breaks down clay soil. And I also found that slugs don't like it ! (I guess because of the soap)

Gonna try it on the nannas too! maybe............

That is..... if I feeeel like toteing it down to the 1st floor and then, down more stairs to the garden! This is not something I look forward to doing.

I go green also. But since getting a lil' older, a lil' heavier, and the stairs seem a lil' longer;
I'll more than likely leave "that grey water green thing" to the ranch style homeowners, and all you young folks! LOL
