Controlling algae bloom early in the spring and keeping it at bay through the summer is the number 1 issue with most pond owners. I recommend our 100% barley pads for any size pond. The secret is to get your pads into the water early in the season as the natural decaying of the straw is what releases enymes into the water and "inhibit" growth of the single cell algae that turns your pond into pea soup! As water temperature and sunlight intensity increases, so does the effectiness of the barley. Barley straw effectiveness can last up to six months. Barley is not toxic to fish or plants, in fact, pond plants may actually grow better since they don't have to compete with algae for nutrients! We carry barley products in different forms for different needs. We also carry other algaecides from name brand companies.
