I did several jars tests this spring and summer. The water in the jar cleared up nicely. There's some vegetation around the pond now, but we haven't finished the final grading, so we haven't sown any grass seed yet. We've been having very dry weather for weeks, then thunderstorms. So, that hasn't been helping things. I took a walk down there this afternoon and the water has dropped a lot due to evaporation. All the local ponds and lakes are down.
I'll take some pictures tomorrow to show what the pond looks like now. We plan to wrap up soon. Much of the pond has been lined with shale. We built some habitat with the spare rocks. We have lots of rocks.
Definitely going to stock FHM soon. Maybe crayfish?
