Since I saw the "Rain Water Harvesting" thread, I figured I'd start a thread about collecting/harvesting water from sprinkler runoff from others down the street. Anyone done this?
At least one neighbor has lawn sprinklers on a timer that go on in the middle of the night and I've been outside watching the water runoff into the sidewalk, into the gutters, all the way down the street and into the storm drains. I'd like to repurpose it to help water my lawn. If it ends up in a bucket, that's good enough for me. I'd dump it on areas that are tough to water w/o also causing runoff.
