So you wash 5 dishes with the same water?
The water has 5 different uses... 1 bucket for a hard rinse, 1 with biodegradable soap for washing, 1 for rinsing the soap and 1 for another rinse with vinegar for disinfecting.
After a while the 1st bucket is too dirty or mucky with food bits, it gets used to water the plant(s) of your choice. The 2nd becomes the hard rinse, the 3rd the wash, the 4th the rinse, and the 1st (after being washed as if it was a dish) becomes the disinfecting.
The cicle is closed and can start over again!
Something along those lines...but you probably already knew this one
