Mid April report

Today I take the plastic off my pond and start setting up the veggie filter. whew. it is finally getting back to normal temp after a cold week and a record breaking snow. the pond water has been 55-60 and it is still clear, no ammonia and just the bucket filter. I have never had it this clear so early. OTOH, I have never fed daphnia and krill rather than "fish food" either. This year I AM going to build a greenhouse type superstructure for winter. There are entirely too many days each spring and fall I could be sitting outside by my pond if I could just use a little "greenhouse effect". Ingrid I'd like to figure out how to put bird netting over my lily pond, so it is high enough not to affect those walking in. There is a 4ft. chain link around it, so I'm thinking attach to that then go high with perhaps pvc painted black. This would hopefully keep out the anti-frog neighbor's nasty sycamore leaves. ~ jan ------------ Zone 7a, SE Washington State Ponds: www.jjspond.us |
