I have just bought some oil drums firstly to use through the winter for water and then for carrot planting later on. they had some disel oil in them. What is the best way of removing the oil so i use them for water.

Thanks

i think the only way to remove diesel would be to burn it out
cant you get hold of the 45g plastic drums they would be easy to clean and wouldnt rot away
feed the soil not the plants
organicish
you learn gardening by making mistakes

thanks Shaun

i was looking for th eplastic ones but these came along having just had new oil in them so i got them. I did try to burn it out but no joy. I am going to try some oil soaking granulkes and jet wash them with some detergent i think.

thanks

Peter
