DIY Garden Pond Update | Water Temps and Winterizing | Part 6

This Video is from the Youtube channel: “Growing Answers”. 

In this video I prep for the first winter. A simple process. The bulk of this is measuring water temps at depth/s and comparing the variations in temperature under different weather conditions. This was mainly to get an idea of how ground temperature effects water temperature.

    Thanks for watching. It’s been a while since I have posted a video and I have me own reasons for that. I was hoping I could observe the effects of colder temperatures have on the pond but this winter might be more mild than usual during the coldest months for this region. I have some partial data for this video but it doesn’t really answer some of the main questions I have. Such as; “Is the pump deep enough in the ground to avoid freezing?” and “How warm will the water be near the bottom during long periods of very cold weather?” and “Will the aerator be sufficient for keeping a spot on the surface from freezing over?” Look for those answers in another future video.
