In spring, I would add the fluridone when the water reaches 45F-50F or do it this fall as in late Sept or October. Curlyleaf normally sprouts and begins new growth in August and decent growth and plant activity continues down to about 45-50F. You realize that when trying to kill curlyleaf you do not need the full regular concentration of 90ppb - correct? The main goal for best kill is a very good or best distribution of chemical throughout the entire water body. Without whole pond aeration one has to rely on destratification and complete top to bottom natural mixing of the fluridone. One has to know when complete destratification starts and stops for most effective treatment.
