We used to have a swimming pool. We did not like to swim or spend so much money to keep the pool clean, it takes lots of money and time to keep it clean. I suggested we have it filled up with dirt so I could have a garden, We had it filled up, I had a very pretty garden all the year, very good idea.
To make a garden in the swimming pool you have to hire someone with a large truck to haul dirt to fill up the pool then you have a garden. Leave the walk way around the pool. It makes a good walk way while working in the garden, and also leave the diving board. It makes a good work bench or a place for flowers in pots. Good luck.
We let ours turn green and went to walmart and in 3 years they were 4-9 inches long it was neat to see the reaction of people when they see a pool with a slide and walk up and fish are everywhere. But don't feed when its cold and if it freezes where you are the fish will be ok. Bugs want leave in it the fish will eat them and if you have snakes in your area that like water throw in a few turtles as well.
