Message: [QUOTE="CountryEscape, post: 113618, member: 3087"] I checked couple of the pots of callas, and it seems like the kitty litter I used is just kind of getting slimy on the top, where it is wettest. The bulbs were still there, still growing, so I'll leave them and see what happens. Got my new skimmer installed, that was a chore, pulling back the liner to dig it down another 4", but that was ok, since I planned on a water change. Then finished the bog outside wall, will hopefully get the rest of the pond outside wall done tomorrow. The pump is just not strong enough for the pond the way I have it set up. I guess I should have made the bog outlet on the same end as the stream, but I wanted opposite ends with some water flow. However, now the skimmer is getting water pushing from both sides, and it's hard for the 1000 gph pump to pull stuff in. So, I'll be getting a 1800 or so pump sometime. In the meantime, it's working, just slower than it should, but that's ok. Frustrating to watch floating grass (yep, I mowed, too) go within inches and not get sucked in. :-( Put flagstone in the stream, and going to get some river rock to put in the bottom, maybe some pea gravel, and then it will be done. Even have enough of the stones left, I kept all the larger ones aside, for walking path around the pond. :-) Another project ... LOL It was chilly (47) and windy and cloudy all morning. The sun didn't decide to bless us with it's appearance until about 2, and then it warmed up nicely. I'm quitting for the day! That was enough work for me. [/QUOTE]
