Re: Please debunk this myth (re: kombucha) greywater vs. sewage

[Guest guest]

i'm not sure where you're from, but most of the places i've heard of do NOT have

separate systems for grey water vs. sewage. most houses, with a septic tank in

the back yard will have ALL wastewater directed to the septic tank.....which has

a leach field that drains the liquid and allows the solids to drop down and

decompose. someone certainly correct me if i'm wrong (but this is my

experience, from my short 28 years of life)

what about pointing out that usually waste water from

the sinks, washing machines, and tubs is separate from septic systems. It's

called " gray water " and usually is piped into an underground leach field to

dispurse and soak into the ground. Septic systems are usually exclusively

water flushed down the toilet.

Now I'm assuming that you aren't planning on flushing your scobies.....?
