I transplanted a few pepper plants into the garden yesterday, and spent some quality time with Nanner working in the pond. It's hard to tell from the picture, but the elevation where the pump is laying is close to five feet below the original level of the pond basin.
Goal for the weekend will be to get the rest of the peppers and the tomato plants into the dirt.
The pond is really getting there.
Nice looking pond project. I cleaned my pond out a couple of years ago. There were a couple of sink holes that acted like quicksand when I stepped near them. The next Spring I expected to find no fish.....but sure as shootin’... bluegills, pickerel and largemouth bass ( full sized ) returned. They must have been down in the sink hole muck. Oddly, bullheads also appeared though I had never seen them before. They must have come in via the blue heron that visits periodically or the small stream that feeds the pond.
I’ll have lettuce and peas in the ground by the end of the weekend here in southern NH.
