What should I feed my water hyacinths over the winter? I have them in
two 4ftx1ftx1ft aquariums under 2 shop lights (4 total shop lights). I
don't know much about gardening. I searched google a lot and didn't see
anything about feeding them during the winter. Is there any kind of
liquid fertilizer I can buy? Or should I just dump some top soil in to
mix with the water? Oh yea, there's a lot of snail in with them so I
don't want to hurt them.

Thanks

I worked for the USDA during my college days. We actually risked our
lives testing various chemicals to destroy them. Now 40 yr.'s later,
when the District lowers the lake. One can still see them in large
patches heading seaward. I say try 2-4 D.
