I'll try to summarize:
East TX. Renovated an old <1 acre pond. Will be BG/LMB pond. Added ag lime before it filled as recommended by many in these parts. Recent rains have made it half full. PH levels were around 7 at last sample last week. Still do not have any established grass around the pond or on the dam. Water has not cleared even after a week of no rain/no activity. There are no fish to worry about and the livestock are not allowed back there...nothing stirring the water.
Assuming we have to add hydrated lime or possibly alum (not sure), what's the most cost effective way/easiest way to clear this water OR does anyone think it will gradually clear once grass is established???
We do not want to stock BG until grass has been established to prevent erosion (and more muddy water).
