| Make Your Own Water Garden! Opret dit eget Water Garden!by National Gardening Association Editors af National Havearbejde Association Redaktion ![]() Bring an exotic touch to your patio, deck, or yard by making a small water garden in a tub. Bring en eksotisk touch til din gårdhave, dæk, eller værftet ved at gøre en lille vand haven i et karbad. Use a plastic or glazed ceramic container or a plastic-lined, wooden half-barrel as the container, and add aquatic and marsh plants, and perhaps goldfish, for color and drama. Brug en plastik eller glaserede keramiske beholder eller en plast-foret, træ halve tønde som beholderen, og der tilsættes vand-og marsh planter, og måske guldfisk, farve og drama. Tools and Materials Værktøj og materialer
Install the barrel liner. If you're using a wooden half-barrel, line it with a sheet of pond liner, available at garden centers. Installer tønde linjefart. Hvis du bruger en træ halve tønde, linje det med et ark dam linjefart, tilgængelig på haven centre. Adjust the liner by making several large folds in the material and draping it over the edge of the barrel. Juster linjerederier ved at gøre flere store folds i materialet og draping det over kanten af tønde. Fill the barrel half full with water to hold the liner in place while you trim and fasten the upper edge to the top of the barrel, just inside the rim. Fyld tønde halvt fyldt med vand til at holde de linjefart på plads, mens du trimme og skru den øverste kant til toppen af tønde, bare inde i rim. Sandwich the liner between the barrel and narrow wooden or galvanized metal strips. Sandwich linjefarten mellem tønde og smalle træ eller galvaniseret metal strimler. Fasten with galvanized screws. Spænde med galvaniserede skruer. Position the container. Empty the container, if necessary. Placer beholderen. Tøm beholderen, hvis det er nødvendigt. Place it on a sturdy, level surface where it will receive at least 6 hours of sun per day. Placer den på en stabil, plan overflade, hvor den får mindst 6 timers sol om dagen. The tub will weigh about 10 pounds per gallon when filled. De karbad vil veje omkring 10 pounds per gallon når besættes. You can also partially bury the container in the ground. Du kan også delvist begrave containeren i jorden. Try this method in hot climates where the summer sun can overheat small aboveground pools. Prøv denne metode i varmt klima, hvor sommeren Sun kan overophede den lille bestråling over puljer. Fill with water. Add water until the container is about two-thirds full. Udfyld med vand. Tilsæt vand, indtil beholderen er cirka to tredjedele fyldt. Let the temperature stabilize and the chlorine from your municipal water supply dissipate for 24 hours before adding plants. Lad temperaturen stabilisere og klor fra din kommunale vandforsyning bortvejre i 24 timer, før du tilføjer planter. (If adding fish, ask if your water company uses chloramine, a water supply disinfectant. If it does, be sure to use a water conditioner, such as Amquel, to neutralize the chemical before adding the fish.) (Hvis tilføje fisk, spørg hvis dit vand virksomheden benytter chloramine, en vandforsyning desinfektionsmiddel. Hvis det sker, skal du huske at bruge en vand hårbalsam, såsom Amquel, at neutralisere den kemiske før du tilføjer fisk.) Install optional water pump. For the tranquil sound of moving water, add a small fountain attached to a recirculating pump. Installer valgfrie vandpumpe. For rolig lyden af flytter vand, tilføjer et lille springvand knyttet til en cirkulationspumpe. Set the pump with attached pipe and nozzle in the bottom of the container. Indstil pumpen med vedhæftede rør og dyse i bunden af beholderen. Always plug water pumps into an electrical outlet with a ground-fault circuit interrupter to avoid risk of electrocution. Always plug vandpumper til en stikkontakt med jord-fault circuit interrupter at undgå risiko for elektrisk. Adjust the water flow to the desired force. Juster Vandgennemstrømningen til den ønskede kraft. Keep in mind that floating plants, such as water lilies, do not like water splashing on their leaves. Husk, at flydende planter, såsom vand liljer, kan ikke lide vand sprøjt på deres blade. Add plants. Plant aquatic and marsh plants in plastic pots filled with special water-plant soil mix. Tilføj planter. Plant vandorganismer og marsh planter i plastik potter fyldt med særlige vand-plante-jord-mix. Place newspaper over the drainage holes in the pots to prevent soil leakage. Sted avis over dræning huller i potter til at forhindre jord udsivning. After planting, cover the surface of the soil with gravel. Efter plantning, dække overfladen af jord med grus. Set pots directly on the bottom of the tub or on bricks or inverted pots to raise plants to the desired level. Sæt potter direkte på bunden af karbad eller på mursten eller omvendt potter til at rejse planter til det ønskede niveau. TipsAdd two bunches of submerged plants, one floating plant, and one or two marsh plants per square yard of water surface to keep algae in check. Add to klaser af undersøiske planter, en flydende plante, og én eller to marsh planter pr square yard vand overfladen for at holde alger i skak. Plants should cover 60 to 70 percent of the surface. Planter bør dække 60 til 70 procent af overfladen. Remove debris regularly, and replace water lost to evaporation, but don't change any water. Fjern vragrester regelmæssigt, og erstatte vand tabt til fordampning, men ændrer ikke noget vand. Within a few weeks, the water should clear. Inden for et par uger, vandet skal klare.
