Pea colored water
Question:
I now have all the products that you have in your Pond Battalion Kit III. I have been using them as recommended for over 2 months and the pea soup water will not get any better. My pond is @ 8×11 and 3’deep. It has a skimmer and bio falls. The water was great until the early heat and tons of sun. My water plants are thriving but they got a late start and cover 1/4 the surface. I’m in the Central IL area and hope you can give me some suggestions. I have not drained out any water to refill with new since I’m on city water. Debbie
Answer:
with a waterfall/skimmerfilter system it is absolutely essential, in addition to what you are doing, is that by this time of year about 3/4 of the surface is covered by plants. The easiest way to do this is with Water Hyacinths and Water Lettuce
