pond soil

pond soil is a specifically formulated soil optimized for use in ponds. It ensures optimal growth of aquatic plants by providing the right nutrients and has a structure that prevents the water from becoming turbid. Different plant species, such as water lilies, require their own specific pond soil for best growth and flowering.

Unlike regular garden soil, pond soil is designed specifically for the unique needs of pond plants. It contains less organic matter, which helps keep the water clear, and provides a more stable, heavier base for aquatic plants.

Although pond soil often lasts for years, sometimes it may be necessary to renew the top layer, especially if the plants are not growing well or the water becomes cloudy. Quality pond soil, such as those from vdvelde, will last several years and are specially treated to keep the water clear.

pond soil consists mainly of garden turf, clay and clayey sand. Garden turf improves water retention for plant roots and adds essential organic matter. Clay promotes better soil structure and contains essential minerals for plant growth, while clayey sand provides good drainage, oxygen supply to roots and a stable plant base.

Vdvelde pond soil is specially formulated for ponds rich in aquatic plants. It contains optimal nutrients for healthy plant growth and treatments that help keep the water clear and efficiently remove waste products. It is an ideal choice for a thriving, healthy pond.
