I have a question. I looked over these posts and followed instructions pretty closely. Built my island and it floats fine - but the plants seem to be in standing water inside the island - that is, the water is wicking up thru the pete moss and such - and there is quite a bit in there.
I was expecting the soil to be damp - but it is just flat wet - with standing water clear to the eye.
Do the plants like having their feet so wet?
Am I doing it ok? Anything else I should be aware of?
It depends on what plants you used. There are some that'll handle being in water over a foot deep. What plants did you put on the island?
