You became the happy owner of the parcel and already anticipate what changes you will be able to make on it what plants to plant and what lodge to construct. And suddenly on closer examination it turns out that under construction you have got the boggy site. Reasons for joy, of course, are not enough. Whether it is possible to drain the swamp formed in your territory and how it is better to make it?
Instruction
1. Refuse temptation to use the simplest, cheap, but at the same time the wrong way, namely – to fill up the swamp with sand or other type of soil. The swamp represents very steady landscape system with which you will not manage to cope in such rectilinear way finally.
2. Think over and carry out the device of drainage system on the boggy area. The most widespread types of drainages – bedded and slot-hole. It is possible that for effective drainage of the swamp you need to resort to consultation and the practical help of experts. Finally the drainage of the boggy site will be cheaper, than useless and monkey laborious work on charge and taking out of water.
3. In the simplest case for drain of marsh water in different zones of the boggy site dig out the closed system of the trenches having inclination in one party. Fill up bottom of trenches with crushed stone, and then lay in them drainage pipes with openings for collecting water.
4. If all of you are not able to destroy the swamp, test intermediate, compromise solution. Often such decisions aimed at finding "golden mean" are the wisest. Two acceptable and simplest options – to dig out pond and to plant trees.
5. Equip decorative reservoir on the boggy site. According to laws of physics in reservoir all marsh moisture will gather, gradually evaporating. Not everyone knows that Versailles estate of the French kings is located in initially boggy area. For the purpose of correction of such natural defect the Cross channel has been dug at the time.
6. Consider the possibility of landing on the boggy site of trees. Such breeds as willow or birch very actively evaporate moisture through leaves. If you pay attention to the birches growing in the marshland you will see that around this tree practically there is always dry allotment. Having planted birch on rather dry site, you will find out that under it more nothing will grow as the birch actively exhausts water from the soil.
