Have a low flush toilet that doesn't flush much? Keep a container nearby, fill it up with water, and pour it in the bowl as you flush. (lemmy.ca)

Are you sure you just don't have the water level in the tank set right?

[–] someguy3@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Maxed out.

Are you sure you need as much flush as you think you do?

We need a toilet pic stat

Can we just fast forward to the poop pic? For scale, I mean.

When I do high fiber + carb loading I know I can really drop off some doozies. Pardon the tmi but we are talking about toilets

Why not use the poop knife?

Your toilet sounds like stressful shit

[–] Tronn4@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

Fuk that. Buy a high flo toilet.

If you "let yellow mellow" the poop hole in your toilet may be calcified with piss crystals and causing a coronary. I replaced my toilet with similar issues and was shocked at how small the discharge was. We were shitting through the eye of a needle!

Different issue, but I'll do another LPT.

LPT: For calcium buildup, turn off the water, flush, them pour lots of vinegar through the overflow pipe - which goes through the siphon jet into the bowl. The vinegar will dissolve buildup. Let sit for hours. CLR will probably work too.
