Watercress loves moving water, the faster the better. The roots do a great
job filtering and if you get too much you can have some for lunch.



For some reason, people don't mind eatting watercress and waterchestnuts
that have been grown in an unseen pond miles from home, but have a problem
with watercress grown in their own pond...

Water chestnuts??? I can grow fresh water chestnuts? Yum! *bounce*
I have no problem whatsoever eating from my pond. Heck, I'm watering
planters of herbs with water from my pond and the're growing like weeds.
Can't beat fish water for fertilizer plus the extra humidity from the
pond keeps the planters from drying out as fast.

Off to Google for water chestnuts...
