Thomas Straubmuller Posted April 11, 2010 Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 Hello! This weekend i had a lot of work in my parent´s garden. I´ve designed my bog completely new. The old one was too small, and some plants were too big. So the only solution was a new and bigger bog. Just to show you how much work it was, here the old one: And here is the new one... A lot of work for two days! I guess the new bog is much better than the old one. I hope that the plants are grow as well as in the old one. I keep you updated, because the temperatures in Germany are still very cold. It´s not completely finished, some little things are to do, but the most is done! I hope you like it!

tuplantacarnivora Posted April 11, 2010 Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 Hi Thomas! it's a great project! I am willing to build a bog for myself, but I have some doubts... How do you water the bog? How deep is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vraev Posted April 11, 2010 Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 Thats a fantastic bog. I am sure next season, once the plants get a chance to recover, they will thrive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Straubmuller Posted April 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Thx for your nice comments! I water the bog with normal water.

Dieter Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 Good job! Normally i use rainwater, but i havn´t enough at the moment. I guess that may have changed last night, at least we got a good amount of water (after quite a few relatively dry weeks).
