adirondack pond- Interesting approach. As long as it works I wouldnt care what I added! I've never heard of oatmeal so let me know how that works! Sounds much better than manure ..haha Another update on my pond. We haven't had any rain to speak of for a few weeks now and it is still holding really steady. It's dropped the usual couple inches due to some hot windy weather but I've noticed it's holding more steady than the pond right next to mine and it's been there for 50+ years an keeps a really constant water level so i'm going to go ahead and declare success on my pond for everyone out there waiting on a definite answer. My pond went from leaking 1.5 inches a day or more to less than 1 inch per week now. I'm going to disk up the banks this fall and add some DB-200/Bentonite Mix then compact with sheepsfoot roller to see if I can get the fall/winter rains to bring it on up to the 8-10ft mark. I'll keep everyone posted!
