Default veggie bog update

I still dont know how the veggie filter bog will do as all the new
plants arent in till next month but so far heres how it going

Iris reeds string algae and water celery were all starting to grow
rather well, cattails showing signs of life. so i then
put about 1/3 lb of BZT in the pond, 2 cups Koi Clay waited two days
and turned on the two 2400 gph pumps to the bog, also turned on the
Trickle Tower
about 3-4 days later the pond cleared up best it has ever been,
couple days later started greening again and then cleared again and has
been clear for 4 days now
two of the four lilies have leaves to the top the other two are leaving
out slowly

the Koi are getting 1 to 1 1/2 cups of Mazuri winter feed in AM whenever
pond temp is 48-50 degrees and wind not blowing not fed if temps are
below 48 or wind is blowing

( they ignore feed if its windy, and will only eat in early AM. picky
litle beggars arent they? )
