Pond Boss Forums POND CONSTRUCTION Soil questions New pond/ water table/ sandy soil

Welcome Matt,

FWIW My pond is very similar to yours and built in similar soil conditions. My advice is do not put anything back into the pond. You will need all the depth you can get in a water table pond. I piled the "sandy muck" up on the side of the pond and let it dry out. I was amazed how quickly the water drained out of it. Once most the water drained out, it was much easier to handle and I just mixed it in with the rest of the fill.

Again Welcome,

Bill D.

I am sure one of the pros will be along to offer some good advice for ya!
