Spring Cleaning Your Pond

Steps for Cleaning a Pond

You might want to do this deep cleaning once a year. Usually spring is a good time. Over an entire year leaves and other debris will blow into your pond and begin to break down on the bottom. This creates an environment that can encourage algae growth and water clarity issues.

When to Fertilize in the Spring

Apply Crabgrass Preventer

When should you start to fertilize your lawn in the spring?
A general rule is put down crabgrass preventer and fertilizer before the soil temperature reaches 55 degrees. A good date would be the middle of April here in Indiana. If you do it too early it won’t be as effective in the middle of the summer when some weeds will begin to germinate. Follow the label to figure out how much product to apply.
