I've noticed a huge difference In growth on my lawn, from the area that receives the waste water, compared to the area next to it. The rose bush Is also outta control. In case anyone was questioning whether it was beneficial.
I dont know why the pictures are loading sideways....

Waste water from the tank or house?:D
 
Yep, got a similar result as well. Waste water from water changes made my lawn grass grow incredubly quick and green, big time! :D
 
This is one reason I keep monster fish, to feed off my other hobby :D
 
Hello; I have been dumping the water from my tanks on to potted plants and into my lawn for a long time. It seems to help.
I also noted since moving to my current home that the area of the lawn around the septic field lines does grow much thicker grass. When we had almost no rain and very high tempratures around here in June and July, that area was the only place where I had any green grass. I suppose part of that was the additional moisture at that period, but the grass ia always thicker here at all other times.
 
I've been doing this for a couple years now. When I do a WC, I put a spare sump pump with a garden hose attached in the tank and put the output on the lawn and fruit trees. They grow like crazy. I'm guessing it's the nitrates in the water that act like a kind of fertilizer for plants and grass.
