I read something here a while ago about plants (Water Lettuce) and Algae
exchanging chemical attacks. Is there anything to this or is it just an old
wives tail? The reason I ask is that my Water Hyacinth is dying off, it's
all turning brown and mushy around the edges. The leaves that are healthy
seem to be a good colour, but the outside leaves and pontoons are all split
and brown.

I've seen WH & WL living in harmony. Now the older pontoons on WH will turn
brown, as long as the center is green, you're doing fine. Are they getting
enough sun is my only question? ~ jan
