With a ppm of 0.17 ?i heard dehumidifier water is good for laundry,/clothes (emptying it into the laundry tub). just my 2cents
yep sure can,i go even a step beyond that,with the condensation water coming from my ac,come out 7. ph and 20ppm so i have a 3/4 in pvc pipe running from it to a 55 gal barrel collecting it,used it in my hydro past summer and worked like a charmHey y'all, I am having to use a dehumidifier , so to cut a long story short,and after throwing a lot of it away. Boom ... Light bulb came on .. ppm'd that water and it is 0.17ppm !! with a pH of 7. Mmm so wondering, if that can be used to water the girls?
I would be worried at pathogens in the water from all the crap in the air going though the humidifierThe water in the reservoir of my dh gets some crap in it. Almost kinda slimy on the sides, I wouldn't use mine. Other people have success with it tho. I just run out the drain now thru a 1/4 inch line.

Hell yah use it, but I’m a dirt grower, so no special treatment. When I’m in bloom keeping the RH under 50% and we’re getting rain, I’m getting 2.5 gallons every other day.Hey y'all, I am having to use a dehumidifier , so to cut a long story short,and after throwing a lot of it away.

Hahahaha I was thinking the same, I've been collecting it,got about 10ltrs don't know if to use it now or notMay be time for a professional cleaning or wear a respirator 24/7 if your growing area has pathogenic "crap in the air". I had to give myself a penicillin shot just reading this.
I always err on the side of caution, and I consider it "grey water". Not just pathogens, but oils and nasty metals.
I definitely wouldn't drink it
Mmm perhaps keep putting it down the toilet. Interesting read , cheers buddyGoodbye from Maximum Yield

If you use a dehumidifier (a common practice in basements worldwide and on all floors of houses in truly humidContinue Readinglaidbackgardener.blog
The key is to clean your barrel/water container of the dehumidifier if your trying to use one that has a mobile tray daily or your giving unneeded pathogens ( cause it takes time to fill, just clean it will a little hot water and ( examples ) physan 20 or soap and hot water, h2o2 & bleach
and if you want to save your water do it just like a rain barrel ( + clean it every Rez change to prevent pathogens and buildups ) 2nd option is when your filling your main Rez just add it straight to it ?
Using a/c and dehumidifier water have reduced my r/o by 10-30% by using that water as well ( and it’s always 0ppm, key is cleaning the barrel!)
Best option is like dirt said and uv the water after getting since w/e the device quality = germs can be there too
Easy peezy
