Backyard PondsWritten by Robert Dorrance
Continued from page 1
If you’re going to have a pond of any size, you should know of some of things that you’re going to need for it. Things you must have are a water pump, a pond filter, a UV filter, and some pond plants. Other things to consider are a good pond liner, some fish, an air diffuser, some pond lighting, fish food, and a skimmer. These are some of things to consider if you want to have a pond. Initially, they can be kind of expensive, however, you will get a lot of enjoyment, as many other people do from their backyard ponds.

Robert Dorrance has had a pond for the last eight years and would like to share all of his different pond experiences with you. Find out more at http://www.Backyard-Pond-Guide.com

In addition, depending upon brand, fertilizers may also contain calcium, sulfur, magnesium, boron, manganese, iron, zinc, copper, and molybdenum. At first glance, this looks like a good thing— sort of like a multi-vitamin for your lawn. However, your grass, like any other plant gets its true nourishment from soil under it. Although excess chemical fertilizers leech into ground, many of chemicals they contain do more harm than good to complex eco-system that provides a continuing source of nutrition for your lawn and ultimately your turf pays price. The truth is that established lawns generally don’t need fertilization. If you feel that you must fertilize your lawn, an established organic fertilizer will enrich your soil as well as feed your grass. Don’t spoon-feed your turf. Instead, provide your turf with a balanced diet from nutrient rich soil.
