Do you have any kind of filter on the on the down spout before water enters the barrel? Most barrels I’ve seen either have a fine screen on’em to keep debris out, or the downspout has a screen. More advanced systems have a separate small pre-tank which fills up first- so the crud off the roof isn’t carried into the main tanks.

Great video- very inspiring. Those rubbermaid-style garbage cans are much more affordable than dedicated rain barrels. Keep up the good work and skate on!

Funny how people think tap water is safe, you water your plants with it and they die. Then they are afraid of rain water. Us Indians can see you are idiots.
