Hi Guys
My wife does extensive gardening and I was thinking of constructing a rain water recovery storage system to help her water and releive the draw on the domestic system. The cistern water will never be used for drinking.
My question is, in a cistern, what prevents the water from turning green like an untreated swimming pool. I can locate the cistern in the basement or underground if that helps. Thanks
