Ok so I have this shallow 300ft ditch behind my house thats about 15ft wide.
Aug is the rainiest month of the year where i live and it now has about 2.5ft of
water in it.
This is what i was thinking of doing with it.
A. cut down the huge wax myrtles on the sides and pile the material down the middle of the ditch then rent an excavator to create a deep channels on the left and right side piling all the dirt into the middle creating a huglebed.

B. cut down the wax myrtles and leave in place then rent an excavator to deepen the ditch piling the dirt on either side in the hopes of creating more of a chinampa.

I think A would give me more plant growing zones and B would allow of
aquaculture.
