ProductWhen to useWhat it doesAdditional Info
Barley Straw Pellets Start in the spring before water temperatures reach 50 degrees F (10 degrees C) and continue maintenance throughout the year. To provide additional water clarity when MICRBOE-LIFT/PL alone does not provide the desired degree of clarity. Just as MICROBE-LIFT/PL biologically matures the pond's eco-system, ML/BSP chemically matures it like it would if aged through the introduction of rain and runoff water passing through decaying vegetation. The pellets sink to the bottom within minutes and dissolve quickly. May turn pond water a tea color for 10-14 days and does leave a residue from the peat. ML/BSP contains peat-shown to have buffering and ion exchange capabilities-and humates which can sequester or "tie-up" nutrients. Studies prove there is a scientific basis for the beneficial clarifying effects of barley's decomposition byproducts, including humic acids and hydrogen peroxide. While barley straw itself would take 4-6 weeks to break down and release these chemicals when added to a pond, ML/BSP contain predigested barley relapsing the same compounds within 1-5 days.
Sludge-Away Booster During spring or summer when our other bacterial products e.g. ML/PL and TAC, do not provide the desired results; or, when organic buildup occurs in areas other than the pond bottom such as waterfalls. Provides a blend of bacteria and enzymes developed to accelerate the breakdown of organic buildup in areas of the pond other than the pond bottom, e.g. waterfalls. Also offers a different consortia in the rare instances when PL does not achieve the desired result Works in areas where MICROBE-LIFT/SA does not break down organic deposits.
Totally Active Clarifier Any time your pond water is not as clear as you want it and the temperature is over 45 degrees F (8 degrees C). If there is sediment buildup on the pond bottom or the pond is not cycling. Soluble components include: sodium bicarbonate (a buffer); sea salt (with important trace minerals and metals); and activated carbon, which car reduce trace pollutant levels, e.g. pesticides through absorption. Does not contain bran that settles to the pond bottom. Only powdered pond clarifier that is totally water soluble! Does not have the full spectrum of organisms contained in MICROBE-LIFT/PL but does include a broader spectrum than any other powdered bacteria. Does not contain photosynthetic bacteria like ML/PL.
Maximum Clarity Any time the pond temperatures are now above 50 degrees F (10 degrees C). Can be used with MICROBE-LIFT/PL to provide additional biological activity or alone where in one of the rare situations ML/PL does not provide the desired result. Balances your pond's ecosystem by establishing all natural biological processes required to keep water clear, reduce or eliminate sludge buildup, and seed your filter. A powdered bacterial clarifier comprising bacteria and enzymes, useful for the rare situation where liquid MICROBE-LIFT/PL does not provide the desired results. The dry form also allows certain forumlants which can be difficult to use in a liquid preparation.
