Watercress update
Holy Cow this stuff is already growing roots and getting colour. I only
threw three bunches in on Saturday. I stuffed some stems into the rocks in the waterfall and they are growing already and the waterfall has never looked better. If you want a cheap plant for your pond then this is a start. $2.00 CDN for 3 bunches. Thanks all for the advice !!! |

wrote in message oups.com... where did you get it for that price? I'm in Hamilton, ON and when I buy watercress I get it at my local grocery store - it's usually in bunches in the fresh herbs section. It's much cheaper to it from a grocery store than a garden centre. Jacqui |

I live in the Greater Toronto Area and yes I have fish and the temps are
about the same as in Ottawa and probably a little warmer. wrote: cool. i'll look for some in the grocery store. do you have fish in your water yet and what are your temps like? |

wrote in message oups.com... cool. i'll look for some in the grocery store. do you have fish in your water yet and what are your temps like? This year my pond is in transition. It's actually waiting to be filled in and a new one put in as we relandscape our yard. So, no fish for me this year... so far, anyway. I'm sure I'll be adding some a bit later. I always rescue a feeder goldfish or two to stock my pond. Do you have any fish in your pond? Do they overwinter? Jacqui |

i hadn't done enough research last fall to know how to overwinter them
so i just put them in a large aquarium. they all survived. i'm going to wait until the water stays at a consistent temperature, around 15 before i drop them in. they are feeders. last year when i got my first batch of feeders they all died because the water was too cold. the same thing happened with the second batch. the third batch went in mid may and they all survived until now. |

If the feeders are goldfish, the cold water won't have killed them.
They can winter with ice on the top of the pond. wrote: i hadn't done enough research last fall to know how to overwinter them so i just put them in a large aquarium. they all survived. i'm going to wait until the water stays at a consistent temperature, around 15 before i drop them in. they are feeders. last year when i got my first batch of feeders they all died because the water was too cold. the same thing happened with the second batch. the third batch went in mid may and they all survived until now. |
