RE: Landscape regeneration. Healing from Motocross Track. First Earthworks: Terrace / Retaining Wall, Pocket Pond, Soil decompaction on 400m2 (4300 square feet).
That is an impressive terrace wall! Nice going!
It's too bad the pond didn't hold despite all that clay... I wonder why that is. I like how adaptive you are to the situation with multiple possible outcomes and learning on the fly :)
Hey @sagescrub. The pond does not hold, because we digged through that good clay layer. It was not more than 40-50cm deep. After that came the white lime sone powder I hold in my hand.. We will see what time will do to this little infiltration pond. Maybe it seals. I will also do trials with organic matter or pond muck from an other pond.
I see. I have never tried to build a pond before. Thank you for explaining all of this. Good luck with your efforts!
