ECOTREAT CLARITY PRO
HOW MUCH TO APPLY & WHEN
Please note that these dose rates are based on many years experience of treating problem ponds. However, it is impossible to produce an average set of dose rates that will work for all ponds under all conditions. If these dose rates are not working effectively for your pond, then try increasing the Maintenance dose rate slowly (e.g. once every 3 weeks, then once every 2 weeks etc) until the problem is brought under control. Thereafter it may be possible to return to the average dose rates. If you are experiencing real difficulties in treating your pond then please contact EcoTreat (preferably by e-mail) to discuss your pond problems.
HOW MUCH TO APPLY - SIMPLE METHOD
The application rate for every 20,000 litres or 4500 gallons, or part thereof, is:
Initial Dose of 2.5 level scoops. Second Dose of 1.5 level scoops 2 weeks later
Maintenance Dose of 1 level scoop 2 weeks later, and monthly thereafter
Example for a 35,000 litre pond: start with 5 scoops, then 3 scoops 2 weeks later then a Maintenance Dose of 2 scoops.
HOW MUCH TO APPLY - CALCULATION METHOD
Calculate the pond volume in cubic metres (or yards). Divide this value by 1.6 to obtain the dose rate (d) in grammes of Clarity Pro.
The Initial Dose is 2.5 x d; the Second Dose is 1.5 x d and the Maintenance Dose is 1 x d.
One level scoop contains about 15 grammes of Clarity Pro. Absolute accuracy is not essential - dose to the nearest half scoop.
Example for a 35,000 litre pond. Dose rate, d = 35/1.6 = 22 grammes. Initial Dose is 2.5 x 22 = 55 grammes. Apply the Second Dose of 1.5 x 22 = 33 grammes 2 weeks later. Finally apply the Maintenance Dose 1 x d = 22 grammes 2 weeks later and monthly thereafter.
