here is what my pond looks like today, less cloudy then the last pic but alot more green. This green seems to be on the walls though, not free floating. Whew.
I am trying to not be so obsessive about things, like the lily leaves when they turn yellow and die. Before I was rushing to clip them off, the spent flowers too, but I decided to let them be and let nature take care of it. Probably what would work best anyway, letting them rot away like in a natural pond. Of course, that is only what I am TRYING to do. I may give in and clip them, I am very weak. LOLOL
How are yours doing? Nancy, any improvement on the green soup?
