Do you fertilize the liles in gravel? Doesn't the N and P leak out and get
into the water this way? I'm just thinking of ways to avoid fertilizing the

I do like Jan and line my pots with weed cloth then add the plants and fill the
basket. currently I have green water, but no string algae - long story!
