Mike Otto, one of the owners here, has a dozer company. He told me the best way to determine whether the soil has the right amount % of clay. Roll it into a ball and throw it at the side of a pickup. If it sticks/holds together, it should hold water. If it shatters, too much sand. I'm assuming soil consistency will change with depth so do you do this test after you dig out the pond and then add clay or a liner as needed? Or is the consistency fairly similar so would it work off of the top layer? I would think that moisture content would factor in as well. Thanks for the input, I'll start warming up my arm!
