Roots from bedding plants growing over the liner and into my pond.
My question is would there be any benefit to the pond to have these
roots growing it the pond? If not I will just cut them out. Gary |

They remove nitrates from the water, a very good thing indeed.

not just use up wastes... they will become home to critters the fish will love to
dine on. Ingrid (G-Hoch) wrote: My question is would there be any benefit to the pond to have these roots growing it the pond? If not I will just cut them out.

I have ferns that have "volunteered" all over my pond. When the roots get
into the water, the fish eat them. It's a real giggle to watch Big Red with a mouthful of root tugging for all she's worth to break it loose, then swim all over the pond defending her "prize".

That stuff had roots 4 feet long into the filter by mid summer. If you fill it with water, they will come. BV. www.iheartmypond.com |
