Summit Barley Straw Pond Treatment Jumbo Bale (MPN 135)

To effectively use barley straw pond treatment, place the bale on the surface of the pond, preferably near a waterfall or filter outlet. It is important to prevent the bale from sinking to the bottom of the pond. If the bale does sink, remove it from the pond for 24 hours to allow it to dry, and then put it back. Allow one month for the bale to become effective. After six months of use, replace the bale with a new one. For continuous treatment, after five months, place a new bale next to the old one and remove the oldest bale at the six-month mark. For optimal results, it is recommended to keep the barley straw bale floating on the pond year-round. To maximize the effectiveness of clear water barley straw pond treatment, add it to the area of the pond with the most circulation and where the water movement is the greatest. Keeping the bale off the bottom of the pond enhances its performance. One package of treatment is sufficient for up to 2,000 gallons of water.
