Part 2: Pond Care…I Like a Natural Pond
Part 5: Pond Care Expectations
If you have been following this series, then you know how much we believe in knowing your pond before you start a pond care plan so that you don’t waste valuable time and money.
We don’t expect you to be an expert on ponds before you start, but knowing the size of your pond and how to recognize signs of an oncoming problem is crucial. A little prevention will save you hours in the summer months when you want to enjoy your pond and all the fun, recreational activities it can provide.
We’ll try to break it down in the most non-scientific, non-geeky way possible, so that a) it makes sense, and b) you are convinced to make some big changes in your approach to pond care.
