Hello everyone. I have a quick question. This year I plan on stocking 3-4 GC in my 1/2 acre pond. Is it too late to stock them? I will be getting my TP next week and was hoping to pick up the GC at the same time but I just read that they should have been stocked earlier.
Thanks, GKLOP

I have seen one GC denude a 0.25 ac pond that had small pondweed and water lilies. I would start with one GC and see what it can do in 2016 & 2017. One GC and TP should make a big reduction in your pond plants in 2016. Then revaluate. GC are easy to stock very difficult to remove. GC can be stocked most anytime they are available.

Thanks Bill! Last year was the first year for TP for me. They did a pretty good job. I did 11 lbs last year and am thinking of 15 this year due to the fact that I restocked some LMB last fall. I'll go with 1 GC this year and see what happens.
