Water quality tester
#11
Cat, how deep is your well? If you need help getting water out let me know I would be glad to help. The salt content usually isn't a problem for irrigation unless it is really salty. As for Aki's well, they should be OK. It was done closer than we like to see but water flows down hill so they should have no problem. Especially at their depth.

Hawai'i's CTAHR (College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Relations) is the go-to source for questions about wells, rainwater catchment, water testing, etc.

Here's a link to their basic info on this subject: http://www.ctahr.hawaii.edu/oc/freepubs/pdf/HH-9.pdf

And their office in Hilo is the dropoff point for the free water testing mentioned in their rainwater handbook.
