Barley straw extract manages the environment but does not consume existing weeds. You must manually remove blanketweed with a net to see immediate improvements.
Estimate volume by multiplying the average length x width x depth (in meters) x 1000 to get total Litres.
Before adding the treatment, ensure you have a clean measuring container if the integrated measure is not used. For the best water clarity, maintain your filtration system and regularly remove visible blanketweed with a net. The treatment is compatible with standard pond ecosystems but should not be used as a substitute for mechanical filtration. Store the bottle in a cool, shaded area away from direct sunlight to preserve the potency of the natural extract. Always shake the bottle well before every use to ensure the active ingredients are properly suspended.
