Ponds, water lilies and nitrates
I've had my pond running for a month and it is a joy. It's lightly
planted with a water lily, some parrots feather and some other margin plants. And 5 goldfish. The nitrogen cycle in the pond converts fish and other waste to nitrates. This powers the pond plants. So, with the coming (finally) rains, I'll have excess water. I have some memory (can't find a reference now though) of using pond water in the garden. Any suggestions on using this nitrated water? Also, I never thought water lilies could be so beautiful. Any way to help them to last more than a few days? Jeff |
