What great water-saving ideas! Thanks so much for sharing your tips with us. Catching rainwater is certainly better than using tap water for plants, and much greener, too! I'll definitely be adding a rain bucket to my back patio. Thanks for the green inspiration! SewLindaAnn & BevC:

Here in West Australia we are allowed two watering days per week . This is worked out by your street number. You can then water anytime before 9.ooam or after 6.00pm on those days and only for a short amount of time per area.During these times you can use a sprinkler/irrigation system. Other times you can water but by hand.We have several water tanks collecting rainwater and buckets in the showers to catch the first lot of water. Happy days.

Then I fill old club soda and water bottles (label them of course) I store them in my garage room to water houseplants with or special outside plants if it's been very dry. This way the houseplants get the nutrients from the rain water and you don't waste water from the faucet. When it rains I let plastic or rubber garbage cans fill up with water.
