Default Duckweed

Well, I was out this morning looking things over after at really NICE
t-storm that swept through the Springs last night. And what do I
behold growing next to some snapdragons that have decided living in
the bio-mech filter media (scrubber pads) is preferable to living in
the soil of the berm. And they are flourishing too! But anyway,
right next to this particularly healthy bunch of snap dragons I seen a
few bits of duckweed! My duck weed has been dead for months and
NOTHING was growing in the veggie filter and bio-mech filters that I
did not put there (except the snap dragons). Healthy looking duck
weed too! So, transfered some to the veggie filter and we will see
what happens. I put about 5 little duckweed plants (that is about all
that was in the other filter so far) in the veggie filter. Will let
you know how it grows!
Happy ponding!
