Question guys..
You can see from my October pics, that the grass and wheat came up last fall.
I'm thinking of dumping a bit more seed down.
The question is; will I do something awful to the water if I also throw down some fertilizer on the new grass and seed? I was going to put down lime also.
Im not talking about a lot of fertilizer, but maybe a light broadcast of some starter type for lawns.
I just figure the stronger I can get this new grass, the better it's going to hold up in filtering the incoming water and stabilizing the banks.
I suspect when the guys farming the two alfalfa fields spray fertilizer this spring, some of that will end up in the pond also.
I'm getting ready to put in fish, I don't want to mess up the water..
Thanks,
Jeff

RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
