My turn next. Friday I'll be getting some of the DB-200 'an DB-100. This weekend I'll spread 1/4 ton of lime dust/gravel, then ??100lbs of salt, and apply the dry polymer. Hopefully I can get a guy down the way with a big John Deer to spend a couple of hours packing down my 1/4 acre pond basin.
Thursday my well should be dug and maybe I can have it ready to pump by next week. I'm throwing everything, except bentonite, at the pond. There's no clay to be found nearby and water is the less pricey alternative if I can get the pond to seal somewhat. I pumped from 4" up to 15" of water today to see how bad it's leaking.
My hydro ram pump is really cool, pumps up about 16,000 gallons a month using only the energy from the flow, yet the spring quits when the weather turns hot/dry and pond water is needed the most. May be able to tweak more efficient use of the spring water in the future.
Doug of ponddoctors said the DB stuff is selling fast; will report soon!
You guys keep us posted on how this stuff works.I am having the guy that dug mine come here in july to do some grading to get more flow to my pond plus going to ad some gutters to the house to pipe to the pond but I still need to fix the leak or seepage I am getting out the back toe of my dam.Keep us posted.
