Default UV did its thing - plants are trying to

Our UV did its thing yesterday. The water is 'tea' clear. You can
see to the bottom of the deep well (7'). It is amazing how those
work. Our hyacinth are not yet ready to take the nutrient load. They
have doubled in the last three weeks, but need to do so again and
perhaps another time yet before they will handle all the waste.

The water celery has filled its 4 x 4 pond and covered all the
duckweed in it. Jim scooped a lot out and tossed it in the main
pond. The koi view it as dinner!
