Well, I went and did it. I bought a 1500 gallon water tank to store
rainwater and keep from running the well dry this summer. Picked it up at
a farm sale for about a quarter what a new one would've been.
This tank had liquid nitrogen in it. Should I worry about the nitrogen
residue and powerwash the inside or just take the early season N boost and
run with it?
Counting down the weeks,

Bill,
When in doubt, wash it out....3 times. Start a plant from a seed you don't
care about and water it with the wash water coming out of the tank. If the
seedling doesn't die, you are set. A nitrogen fertilizer residue is not as
dangerous as a herbicide residue.
