Re: Any pond/ algae experts in the house?

Re: Any pond/ algae experts in the house?

no but i can have the water tested right away. even tho i dont think that is it. i havent had to fill it with a hose in over 6 months. rain water maintains it. explain to me why a UV light wont work/help? it kills all that passes thru it. my friend put a 10w in his coy pond and it cleared the water ...

Re: Walking Sprinklers

Re: Any pond/ algae experts in the house?

Do you have aquatic plants in there to compete with the algae for the available nutrients? Water lillies would also help both by using the nutrients and shading the water surface so the algae starves of light.I would get both,and as many as the budget allows.As far as your UV sterilizers,be sure yo...

Re: Any pond/ algae experts in the house?

andy, i had a good estimate of the gallons when we dug it last year but i know the bottom has filled in a LOT. its "L" shaped so its kind of a pain to guesstimate. lets say average 3" deep. 14" wide closer to the house and 8" wide in the back (smaller) portion. in the second pic. the house side is o...

Re: not enough 24-d? (w/pics)

Celcius stunted my Zorro Zoysia and bleached it also. It lasted for a couple of weeks and is now going away. I may have over applied after reading what others said on how much to apply.

Re: not enough 24-d? (w/pics)

"Goosegrass thrives on low mowing heights. Increasing the mowing height will prevent sunlight from reaching the seeds that are trying to germinate.
Goosegrass also thrives in soil that is compacted. Therefore, reduce traffic if possible and aerate."
