Can you use Washing Machine water on plants?

I am careful with the type of detergents I use but I don't want to harm the plants

Dear Dawn,

We would not suggest you use the water from your washing machine on your citrus trees. This water could contain bacteria rendering it not suitable for use on edible crops.
