Pool water onto garden!! Please help!!!!

12 years ago

I was chlorinating my pool with granulated chlorine and my canister filter failed spewing highly chlorinated water all over my garden. I currently have my sprinkler running soaking my garden. Is my garden doomed? Will the sprinklers flush all the chlorine away? please help!!

I think you are doing all you can - soak deeply to dilute and flush the chemical down into the soil lower than the root zones of your plants. Cross your fingers - and let us know how it turns out.
