well if you use non organic soaps then im sure it will effect the soil goodies but not any thing noticeable. id be more worried about the soaps you use in the tub rather then the tea tree oil, im not to familiar with tree oil but it sounds natural or organic.so i have a question for you guys:
i've been using my kid's bathwater to water the container garden (it's the shortest haul from that bathroom) but he's had a bit of a rash the last couple days so i added some drops of tea tree oil to his bath yesterday.
do you think it'll be ok to use this water? (i used about 10 drops to 6 gal water)
i know tea tree oil is an indiscriminate killer; i don't want to disturb all my nice microbes but do you think 10 drops/6 gal would be strong enough to damage them?
either or though im sure the plants will be fine
