Meadowlark and all,

When I finish my pond, should I apply lime to the bottom before I fill it? Should I use the coarse "ag lime" or the powdery hydrated lime?

Should I disk it in?

Or, as Meadowlark says (I think!) should I fill the pond first, then spread lime on the water catchment area and let it settle naturally on the pond bottom?

Or... does any of it *really* matter? \:\)

Thanks,,,
