- How to build an organic pool (natural pool) in 3 minutes. An organic pool uses plants and animals to keep the water clean and healthy without the use of added chemicals. A pool for swimming and a wilderness for wildlife.
This plunge pool is 6m by 8m in total with a 2m deep swimming zone of 4m by 2m.
This is a quick romp through my DIY film to give you a good idea of how to build a small natural pool. Find more info and Free pdf on organicpools.co.uk

This video is hilarious, I feel like my Grandma fell asleep holding the remote with her thumb pressed on the "skip" button.
HAHAHAHA
qué bueno. I laughed so hard
Wow I'm really impressed that they built this whole pool in 3 minutes.
you should see how fast he is with his wife
@@lokivato pervert, you are

3 minutes a lot of important info was cut out. Like when he said and then did... but of course they.... always gotta do.... the foam wa.... and let's not forget when.... plus cant... oh you can't do... but then must have... thanks for watching
LOL! I have a habit of reading comments before watching videos, so after reading yours I was thinking, "WTH??" Then I watched the video...
Yup, nailed it! Tooootally understand your comment now. You weren't kidding! 😂
Angie Carter Barlow lmao yeah I think it was the video that never should have been posted
Riiiight!
just watch the full version... this is basically a preview
joe brown HE COULD HAVE JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LET US VIEW THE VIDEO ONLY.
In Florida, "Organic natural pool" is code for "alligator home".
🤣🤣🤣

Swimming pool also code for alligator home too.
Dont you ever visit the springs
I’m crying 😂😂
All these comments are hate but I think this looks pretty dang cool and the kids seem to love it!!
I think the person who edited this was drunk
Jack Jack Yes!!!!
Football Guy I fully agree. Pammie from Chicago
It made sense at 2:12 when he mentioned having a few joints ✌️
Football Guy what....was....think....too.....
😂
Tried to build this pool but it took me longer than 3 minutes. Am very disappointed.
Alex Bridger keep going
It took me 7 but its done now
Amateur... did it in 2
Lol

Oke bos
And in time with no filters and no drainage you'll never want to step foot in there again. The frogs and algae will absolutely love it though.
Leandro c
the natural planting is called a bio filter. you don't need another kind.
another swan it will become extremely eutrophic the second algae starts growing.
You can have the plants take care of the filtering. You can put a solar pump on a diffuser to keep algae from growing. You can have fish and crustaceans take care of the solid waste. That'll be fed back to the plants.
you are uninformed my friend. Natural swimming pools utilise natural filtration. Have a research, they frequently test cleaner than tap-water safety standards.

yep lmao
I remember when I was around 10 and my friends and I swam in the local creek near our house, a river rat came swimming by us.. We got scared shitless... Then we found a huge piece of foam and went rafting on it and a snapping turtle came up to us.. again scared shitless LOL
wow. This has GOT to win the award for worst edit EVER.
I liked it. Matches my thought process. Kind of like watching a terrible B movie that has become a cult classic.
Could you just appreciate their work?? 😕
B Cook, it's not about the video, it's about what this man brought to his family.
Cassy Waterhouse no you fuck someone else did a documentary on this as you can tell from the cut up voice in the vid. all this person did was ‘try’ to edit it to make it look like theirs
Matsurii, if you are right, then congratulations, but if you are wrong, just appreciate that there is someone out there who took alot of time to give his family a pool, something every kid wants, but almost never gets.
old people in our country just sit on their couch but ur old people is working hard. respect
And UA-cam thought this was a video I should watch... Nice!
The editing is on point"it's a bunion"
When i built my organic pool, the trench collapsed and i had to be rescued by the fire department. I re watched your video, and because of poor editing, i missed a step
hah
are you serious
ouch
Thats probably because you are one of those wankers that blames things outside of themselves for their own stupidity. You are a dumbass.
+Benn Whistler you have been trolled dumbass!

love this video. perfect editing! chuckled the whole way through
very cool, I hope the guy came up after jumping in at the end.

Wow in just 3 minutes you made a pool Amazing
Great editing! So natural!
What a tremendous amount of work that looks like, but such beautiful results!
so what are you going to do about standing water? this is going to be a parasite nest, you should probably invest in a pump if you are going to swim in that.
Certain plants and animals are used so that doesn't happen. It seems odd and unbelievable, but I have a friend in Costa Rica who built a natural pool like this. The water is always clean. I never really asked him what plants and animals he uses, just amazed it is possible.
The water would still need to be changed frequently to reduce the rising nitrates in the water. Also, no matter how many plants and fish you have, the substrate and bottom of the pool will be a breeding ground for anaerobic bacteria. I would not advise to swim regularly.
Plants filter nitrates....
There is a pump. They explain it in another video.
MrPepsicola123 your paranoid my friend
Impressive that you managed to dig out all that in three minutes, can i hire you to do one for me in 2 and a half minutes?
Amazing work! Looking forward to building my own natural pool sometime.
I see a lot of negative comments here which stem from ignorance, what most of these people fail to realise is that this is so much healthier to swim in compared to chlorinated pools and maintains itself through natural processes. That's what the planting is for.
Please try and leave your artificial bubbles and get out there in the wild, swim in natural watering holes, lakes and rivers; you'll absolutely love it. Cheers!
A word of advice - I understand this vid is a compilation from more detailed videos, but you might want to do a voiceover for this one as the audio cuts in awkward places can be a little frustrating.
Oscar winning in the video-editing category!
ok,How the fuck I will dig that in 3 minutes??
Fresh Lou true
Fresh Lou how to watch a how to make a pool in a 3min video
You got me at "one more thing"
how do you control mosquitos and larvae? any treatments...this is awesome!!

Cool to see how many people are afraid of nature. The thing that is eating our brains is not bacteria but television. :)
And yes, there is a risky thing about nature- but cars are far more dangerous and we do walk the streets of big cities. If you live, you take risks, but knowledge is power. So get to know the snakes that live in your region and react appropriate to the ones that show up.
Apart from that feedback to #society I would like to show my appreciation to the person that made the video. It's showing the steps he chose and it turns out to be a good manual. Greetings!
Man : How long does it take to edit this?
Editor : Yes
This is the funniest thing I've ever seen and I'm frustrated
cool cat I get frustrated with humor too.
You need to put the.. builings eh.. sticks on the.. pools looking great

how to build a mosquito nest
True
With hand
He has the purify thing brainless
yeah his "purify" thing is just a sponge with algae growing on it, it's a fucking joke, the pool his son swam in "in his floating filter video" obvious had a ridiculously high amount of chlorine, and whoever owns or runs the pool needs to do a PH test, because chlorine burns means its way to much chlorine
source: worked for a water park and we did these tests DAILY, once in the morning at park open, and once at night before we went home., and how the test is done, get a small jar of pool water, and use a paper strip, if it turns green it's fine, it it turns pink there way to much chlorine
Sam Hyena water park is totally different thing to natural pond with its ecosystem of plants, beneficial bacteria, algae etc.
I know what I'm talking about coz I'm keeping both 200l freshwater living aquarium and 12 cubic meters pool and it's totally different stuff
watch a snake goes into the water
Lol very fun I loved when you jumped in the water all dressed
What a wonderful way to build a natural swimming pool.. I like it.
For those who dont know, humans have been swimming in ponds/rivers for centuries, amoebas live in stagnant water, true but when u add fishes to the pond, their fry and smaller fish species will quickly eat any amoebas, also the ammonia of the fish and other species's waste is quickly absorbed by the plants thus providing a nice biological filter. Personally, i wouldnt mind swimming in this pond, but i would probably not dip my head inside just to be safe.
@@mariatovar3086 there are many other micro organisms in the water besides the amoebas that can enter your ear, nostrils and eyes...
I Completely agree, its just that you said you would swim in it cause you think it's safe but not dip you head in it. So, obviously you don't think it's completely safe. Yes people have swum in rivers and lakes forever but people have also died from diseases due to swimming in them. We had a 12yr. old die hours after swimming in a similar pond as the one in this video.
The child that died was not my child but I said we because he was a student from our school.
@@mtovarteach its safe as in for skin contact, no water in the world is safe enough for you to swallow or inhale, people have died from swallowing beach water and even swallowing chlorinated water (chlorine poisoning), so at the end of the day if its not sterile water, theres always a risk putting ur head inside the water, micro organisms other than amoebas tend not to be as dangerous, and usually a good biological filter in the pond can even match the safety of a regular pool, they might fluctuate in terms of safety tho just as any chlorinated pools, thats why they test the water daily. The 12 year old you're referring to could have been in a stagnant pool with no fishes, no oxygen,etc. and those ponds can be very risky as they are populated with decomposing bacteria and parasites

My dad built us a big pond on our property in Montana...I spent many splendid sommers swimming and fishing
I was only able to get my shovel out of the shed in three minutes... you guy's are beast to do all that in 3 minutes !!
Beautiful work
2:42 Legend says that the Man never came back up
Top notch editing 😚👌
now thats what i call an edit
all killer no filler baby! xD
This wouldn't work in Florida this pool would be filled with gators, snapping turtles, water moccasins, boa constrictors, not to mention deadly bacteria from stagnant water.
JL Ay, I live in Southern California, the wildlife would be having parties in there. Plus, who wants to spend their time scooping out dead rattlers from the bottom (Goshdarn hawks dropping them). Anyways, our backyard can't support a pool xD. Don't want a canyon landslide
JL not necessarily in northern Florida.....okey maybe not completely animal free but.....close to it and besides it's basically a small lake people swim in lakes what's so different?
JL 😂😂😂😂💀💀💀💀
Just turn it into a big pot for soup
It looks like it took a lot longer than 3 mins to build this.
But with out fish dont you get mosquitoes? In a more tropical climate would this be a problem? Like in Brazil we have the dengue mosquito! Thank you.

No Ohio is more dangerous I hate Brazilians
Great work
So cute and such a pretty garden.
I will go with the normal pool with chlorine in it... This is a bit too much nature for me.
you sir need to live some... grew up in florida with gators in lakes....so you throw some raw meat in there first...nothing eats the raw meat....nothing will eat you
HWMeatcutter :-) Nice story :-D But it's just gross all that nature stuff

rather a fish pond than a pool. seeing this geometric shape i would never recognize this as a pool. whats the point of the tiny deeper rectangle in the middle?
To add the slightly disturbing element of the unknown.
Beautiful pool which you have built. It became perfect.

that is sooo much work for such a tiny swimming area
Well that title is a bit misleading!
+Netflixry for morons lol
Narrated by Steven Hawkins after a 3 day coke binge ..
I dont get it? Why do many negative comments. I mean I get the whole "pond" assumption but the guy just showed us how to build it and I'd say he did a fine job. It's pretty, man made and I assume he knows what he's doing. As for the video editing, I will admit, it could use some work.
nice edit
That is so organic.... that weird animals can come to live there
I would not jump in that shit
Darnel Walker why?
Gapa Because city boy here thinks the water is dirty when it has little bit of clay and rocks in it.
my step dad had build one and man it was fun BT the frogs and snakes mosquitos all kinds of creatures started to call it home. and we stop using it.
That cool i like you talk i like you say words
Luke Adair here in the UK there are snakes, like grass snakes and others. Just not deadly
Chlorine
Chris Applewhite you can’t put chlorine in a wildfire natural pond. It completely defeats the purpose
You needed to put plants in it for - then you should - and then - hope this helps
Nice. I would love just a pond with moving water. So nice.
Finally. A content that skips all the talking and more in to building
Don't amoeba thrive in organic pools??
Lol, yea, that and more, there's a reason we add Chlorine.
@@hoviksmail Amoeba like it warm
@classic smut they didn't... advancements like sterilized swimming pools are what contribute to our life expectancies doubling or tripling that of past generations
@there's rain on my muffin They did so by avoiding stagnate water like this pool.
@captain thunderpants they didnt survive, and we learned to put chemicals in the water after the stupid's gave their lives for us
They cut out the important stuff and kept in 'can I have a wild strawberry daddy' 🙄😂
3 minutes my butt. what the heck is this badly edited video
fuck you joker, its a shit video.
your butt stinks
Iluteevee only your ass stinks!
Generic Username you need to fucking chill
Iluteevee Naw I got a snake that wont leave the tip of my dick and mosquitoes in my ass cheeks.
Love these videos... just subscribed!
What a wonderful idea and a beautiful outcome. Obviously something went wrong in the sound department.
It is a beautiful pool...I would LOVE to have this! 💗
The water isn't mucky, it's I fact quite clear, the dark water is because of the black tarp that's on the deep part of the pool
"Daddy can I have a wild strawberry? Can I have a wild strawberry daddy?" Was the kid saying that?
Yes
Americans, you dont know about wild strawberrys. Theyre like very small strawerries but huge amount of aroma. Get'em anyway you can, or grow them if you have to.
@@thedude4795 We have wild strawberries here.
What a great idea! Id rather swim in this rather than a chlorinated swimming pool any day🤙🏽💞
And they live in England where they don't have alligators or nasty snakes. Frogs n mice are ok. In fact you'll find them in swimming pools too.
Editor: How many cuts you want?
Autor: Yes.
2:00 lmao the fart
i really thought the pool was built in 3 minutes like whaaat
So basically, a deep pond.
“Seems digging’s not going to be e- bought it off Ebay... -oundation- this part o’ the poowell but it is over this part; it’s gonna be different.” Mad informative. Well, I’m off to build my pool. Just gotta find a mouse to help with the -oundation.
This is very nice!!!!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
If there is a rat or mice expect that there was a snake. i don't want to swim with grass sorrounded by water its scare's me.
Meow Kitty also expect rat pee and poop in the water and leptospirosis.....maybe cholera?
Same for me
Swim with grass? Sorrounded by water?
...swim on water with grass.......
The grass cleans the w - the pond needs - don't forget ro wash - you need to utilize the - hope this helps
