This last June, I applied soilfloc to a ½ acre pond. Our decision to use Soilfloc was because of the logistics of draining the pond.
Applying 3 units of Soilfloc was prescribed to treat ¼ acre of the pond, targeted area was near the dam.
I roped my father in-law into helping me, mainly manning the ropes we strung across the pond. We used ropes approximately 3’ apart to help with determining square footage for treatment.
The application process went smoothly. I used my small pontoon boat as guide for length and our ropes as width.
After treating, I started noticing the difference in water clarity and in 2 days our seepage area started slowing down. On July 3rd, I put in a measuring stick to determine success. I found that my water loss was mainly evaporation and not due to seepage. The area on backside of dam is dry as a bone and we have more water this year than last year.
I am impressed with the product and support I received from TJ.
