I buy the Jobe's Rosebush tabs and break then into 3rds. These
pieces are forced down among the roots and covered with heavy clay
soil and gravel. Once a season is enough. Algae needs loads of sun,
phosphates and nitrates to grow. These numbers are very low in my
ponds; Phos=0 and nitrates=10 so little algae grows. :-) I have a
lot of plants in my ponds competing for any nutrients.


Thanks for the replies. :-)
