Hey this sounds just like us! We installed a borehole and pump a few months ago and then cleaned the water veins so that the water wasn't tasting and smelling like rotten eggs.
You're absolutely right about the water however. We actually use the water for the cabbages and other veggies were growing, but then after some tests we started consuming it too.
All of this sounds great until our borehole pump broke....suddenly we were up the rover without a paddle as we had become reliant on the water from under the ground. So all we had left was the 15000l of water in our tanks until we could get the borehole pump working again.
That was when we were blessed....in the middle of the worst droought in the Western Cape area for decades, we had RAIN! Lucky? I dont like to think so.
Hey good luck with all your adventures and projects. And thanks for the post
Sounds like you have lots of sulfur in your water. We had a well like that a while back in Mississippi. We were also on community water there so it was not a problem. The well was water still tasted good just smelled a little strong. LOL
Thanks! Glad you got some rain! It comes at the right time.
