Apply in the spring when water flow has subsided. Generally once or twice a season.

Macro-Zyme Beneficial Bacteria
This non-toxic bacteria/enzyme product helps to decompose the muck on the pond bottom, which is really organic matter from animal waste, grass clippings, fallen leaves, and fertilizer runoff. This process helps reduce the nutrients available for algae growth without the use of chemicals, increasing oxygen levels as well as improving water clarity. 
Apply when the water temp. has reached 55 °. Can be added monthly, 3x during the warmer months (June, July, Aug). |
Barley Straw Pellets
The application of barley straw has received attention as a way to clarify ponds. Research with the decomposition of barley straw bales shows that it aids in balancing water quality. As it degrades, peroxide is created, which deters further algae growth. Barley straw pellets are natural, easy & clean to apply, as well as breaking down quickly.
Apply at anytime, generally once a season. |
