We set up our little duck pond with a bottom drain, slightly uphill from the garden. About once a week, we empty it and spray out any accumulated muck from the bottom, and it drains into a depression at the start of the garden and flows from there down into the garden. We've been using this system for about 6 months, so mostly over the winter, now that it is warming up we're noticing a slight shall we say scent where the bottom drain empties into the depression.
We're looking for suggestions on how to reduce the scent. We do intend to occasionally shovel a layer out and use it to compost the shrubs. But it would be nice to have ideas about sprinkling something on (ash?) or other ideas. Appreciate any ideas!
I attached a picture you can see the depression at bottom right, there are channels going from it throughout the garden. Also duck picture tax too
