Hey, no problem, Just Me. Had to remind you that I'm
aware that rec.ponds is indeed world wide ;-)

Sorry Nedra, hope my response was not out of line. If it was then my
apologies ;-(

But it does for someone as far south west as I am in Southern
California.
And I'm sure it also does for those in this group leaving in South
Africa,
or Australia, or similar weather belt. We need to keep remembering
that
this is world wide web, not USA web, no?

No one has said where they are located! Location, location,
location. Makes all the difference. Here in Missouri it only
lasts until the first frost. Lake Victoria in Africa is a good TV
program but has no application for someone as far north as
I am.

I never really had any luck with water hyacinth. I don't know if
it
got
to
much sun or to little.
What took over my ponds is the Parrots Feature. I had a mess with
that
stuff. Poor fish didn't hardly have any room to swim when I came
home
on
vacation one summer.

That stuff grows like crazy. I had some in my pond last summer
and
it
took over the whole thing.

Hi all. I just watched a special program on National

channel
about how water hyacinth is taking over Lake Victoria in
Africa.
They
said
it doubles in area every 14 days! Apparently there is so much
of
it
fishermen get stranded in it for days and must be rescued.
It's
messing
up
the ecosystem there as well as keeping people from making
their
only

of income. And to think I wanted to put some in my pond this
spring...
