Hi All,
My dad came over with his reverse osmosis water tester and tried it in my pond. It read 900 ppm.
Does this mean anything to anyone? And is it good, bad or pointless? The meter is used for testing drinking water - which of course a pond isn't meant to be drank, so ...... ARG! Parents! Lol!
My PH is around 7.5, 0 Nirites, 0 Ammonia, 0 Phosphates
I welcome any input. My water hyacinths are suffering, my Dad suggested the water might not be good for them .... all other plants are doing good. Fish seem happy. I think the fish are eating the roots of the hyacinths. I've just netted them a week ago, so waiting to see if they come back.
Thanks for any of your thoughts or comments.
