Before you start the process of reducing refractory or liable organic muck on the pond bottom it is wise to first test and benchmark the water chemistry and the organic muck layer to implement an application plan. Pond water nutrient levels can be influenced by surface run-off from fertilized lawns, agricultural fields, or the absence of aquatic plants. The organic muck layer is often composed of leaf litter and expired aquatic plant material. A second test of nutrients and pond muck thickness should be done after monthly applications of National Pond Probiotic Pond bacteria. This comparison will provide you with two data points to determine how much progress is being made. We are always available to answer your questions and share experiences based on the pond service work we do.
