Lee, did you ever get your algae bloom? Did you have to refertilize?
I fertilized my 10 acre lake back on 3/31/04. I used 10-34-0 liquid fertilizer at 3 gallons an acre. the lake is only 12' at its deepest, but was crystal clear all the way to the bottom. The very next morning there was a ever so slight greenish tint to the water and some "scum" buildup along the windblown shorelines. Water visibility with a secchie (sp) disk is now down from 12' to 8'. Better, but still a long way to go. I will fertilize again a couple of days after this cold front leaves with 1 and 1/2 gallons per acre.
Please keep us posted so we can compare notes, I am new at this too, but am having a lot of fun with it.
