Title:During a recent dry spell water from a tidal creek was used to water some of our greens. Immediately afterwards our turf showed signs of damage and does not appear to have recovered yet. The water was not actually seawater but it did taste slightly brackish. Would this be dangerous to use and could we do anything to overcome the damage?
