I have already started the digging the hole for my new bog, and I am almost
ready to lay the liner down. I am worried that because the liner has no
holes in it, the bog may become to swampy and flood with water when we have
heavy rains. ( I live in NJ and this has been a very wet year!) How do I
prevent the bog from becoming a swamp or more like a pond with soil in it?
Will the plants drink a lot of the water? Should I put holes in the liner
like Peter d'Amato suggests in his book? Thanks.
