Constructing Your Garden Pond - The Basics by Michele Miller

So you have decided to build a garden pond? Congratulations! With a little bit of time, effort, and money you can build a pond that is both beautiful and functional. Below you will find a checklist of what needs to be done to construct a garden pond in your backyard, as well as a list of additional things that you will want to consider when designing your pond.

The Basics

Step 1: Design/Plan your dream pond. This step in the process is not one to be taken lightly. You need to decide the best place to put your pond, how big you want it to be, the shape/depth, whether you want fish or not, and many other details. Changing your plan mid-construction will likely cost you both time and money. Write down all of your ideas and create a list of the things that you want your pond to have, and what you could do without.

Step 2: Outlining your pond. You will want to use a garden hose, or twine and stakes to outline the general shape of your pond. Double check to make sure that it isn't in the way of power or water lines, and is away from overhanging trees or other environmental hazards.

Step 3: Start Digging. This is the most labor intensive part of the process. You can either dig the pond yourself, or hire someone to do it for you.

Step 4: Line your pond. Depending on the type of liner that you choose, this can be a simple or a complex procedure. If you use a PVC liner, it is simply a matter of getting the liner in place and smoothing out bubbles to make it conform to the shape of your pond. Fiberglass and concrete linings (which are more durable and long lasting) require more prep work.

Step 5: Finish up the liner. If you are using PVC lining, you will want to leave a couple of inches around the edge of your pond for rocks and edging. If you choose fiberglass or cement, you will want to make sure that the application was completed properly, and your system is flushed ready for water.

Step 6: Decorate! Small and large rocks strategically placed around the outer rim of your pond will help conceal the liner and make it appear more natural. You can be as creative as you want with this process.

Step 7: Stock your pond. If you plan to put plants or fish in your pond, this is the time to do it. You will likely want to wait a while before introducing fish, and test the water often to make sure that the water levels are acceptable for supporting life.

Additional Items to Think About

If you follow the steps above you will have a simple garden pond to enjoy for many years to come! If you plan on having any fish or want to design a medium to large pond, you will also want to read up on filtration systems, waterfalls, and the various types of plant and animal life for your pond.

I'm taking care of friends pets while she's gone (1 week) can't be there for one day. Does that matter?

I'm supposed to water the plants once a day and feed her cat twice a day. The cat lives outside so I don't have to change the litter box and it drinks out of their pond so I don't have to water it. In their pond are about 4 Koi fish, and I am supposed to feed them twice a day. Do you think it would matter to the plants/Koi/cat if I didn't feed them for one day? I'm supposed to start Saturday night and then I'm leaving for all Sunday and I come back Monday morning. So is that going to make the cat freak out or Koi die or the plants die or something? I know this seems irresponsible but I was their only option, they had absolutely nobody else to do it for them, thats why they asked me. I'm just wondering if by the time I get back, is anything going to be dead or damaged? Because I do not want that and if that is a possibility, I will find someone else myself to do it.

I'm going to have to emphatically disagree with Oregano13 on this one.
I know of NO potted household plant that MUST have water every single day to survive.
That's ridiculous. In fact, I know of NO household potted plant that would NOT be harmed from such over-watering!
If the planting medium is wet to the touch with a finger inserted 1 inch deep when you water, you are over-watering.
Even rain-forest plants can stand to go 48 hours without watering with no permanent harm.
Even expensive aeroponically grown orchids can miss watering for a few days!
Even if these house plants wilt (which I highly doubt), they will immediately start to come back the moment they get water.
The cat will NOT have an aneurysm and the Koi will never know they skipped a day. I swear it!
