Hi all,
I'm embarking on quite a waterfall build, and have two questions to those with more knowledge and experience. This is being built on a pretty steep slope, maybe 70 degrees. I plan on having two different liners. One for the basin, and one for the waterfall and stream.
How far does the liner from the stream have to go down into the basin? It seems that if it went down maybe by a couple of feet, it would ensure that the water actually goes "into" the basin, BUT would water then get under that lip of the stream liner, because it's below the top of the filled basin?
Also, I'm planning on branching off of the main stream at some point, into maybe a 1' tributary of sorts, to go around a previously planted tea olive tree, then back into the same basin. If I account for the extra "water in motion", does this seem doable? All the tutorials online show just one stream.
Thanks,
Marc
