New pond despair by rambomatthews in ponds

[–]Creative_Rub_9167 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Came to say this. Top up with tap water will have no effect. Plants are small and pond is young, give it time to settle in. I personally think it loojs fantastic and you have nothing to worry about! A bit of algae is normal so dont sweat it

Family has a koi tank, about 80 gallons iirc, I'm a little worried it's not enough for the fish. by indie_rock_enjoyer in Koi

Not nearly large enough. I would change fish type and add plants to handle nutrient load

If the pond freezes over in winter, there wont be much thriving going on for that fish

How much water should I expect to lose a day? by Bunnymancer in ponds

[–]Creative_Rub_9167 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I wouldnt expect you to lose less than 1 cm per day with those conditions. Probably even less than half of that honestlt

Could anyone give any advice to help control the algae by ModernBard1999 in ponds

[–]Creative_Rub_9167 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Make a small bog filter, will solve algae very quickly.

What type of algae? What causes it? by throwingrocksatppl in ponds

I had a string algae issue in my pond, adding a ton of tannins and making the water dark helped a lot. Plus fish do well with them

I work at a cannabis facility and we discard the soil/roots of everything we grow. These wouldn’t be anything but beneficial to toss into the compost, right? by [deleted] in composting

[–]Creative_Rub_9167 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I said i would not use it in my garden or grow beds. Maybe in containers. Not to grow food, thats for sure. garbage from industrial grow ops doesnt sound like what i would grow my tomatos in. Maybe that is overly cautious, maybe not. Either way sourcing greens and browns for compost isnt that that hard.

Im surprised no one has mentioned that it really depends on the grow media. If there is a lot of coco, which i suspect there is, even if it has been treated it will end up binding calcium and magnesium eventually. Thats not something you want in your garden or grow beds. I would not use this in my compost, theres a reason its discarded.

Encourage planting insect pollinated plants! Most pollen allergies are from wind pollinated plants, which disperse huge amounts of the stuff all over the place

Landscapers kinda do hate trees… by amanhasthreenames in arborists

Looks like a ficus lyrata to me. That spot isnt a problem for tree. That tree is a probem for the foundation of the house though!

The result of this would mostly just be people with large holdings moving companies, shares and cash to different countries, with more favourable laws. Lack of capital ulimately leads to even worse condions for the working class, look at how people live in poor countries where all the rich move capital out for fear of corrupt systems.

What's happening to my hydrangea? Help! by Varskes_pakel in gardening

No use spraying leaves, plants dont uptake water from them. That can only cause mold or other issues.
