This is my second year of owning the property but why am I seeing more of a problem this year over last year?
We had a significant drought in the area last year but my water level was affected very little. This year we have had significant rainfall in the area and the pond has been at draining levels several times already. Has the rain washed nutrients in that would cause the significant difference?
I plan to mix the copper sulfate with water and treat small areas especially the top matted algae. I went out briefly yesterday and hand tossed some in the most effected areas and checked last night and I cannot tell a difference at all. Of course I do not know how fast or slow this works. This is all a learning experience for me.
How do I get in touch with specific members of the group to get professional opinions on matters? A member suggested earlier that I contact a particular member.
