Microbe Lift Barley Straw Pellets are an environmentally responsible, cost-efficient pond conditioner that is a natural and organic way to a healthy pond environment! Works in much the same way as barley straw�only faster! Whereas barley straw works by releasing certain natural chemicals as it biodegrades, so do the pellets, only the breakdown compounds are released faster – dispersing equally throughout the water, reacting photochemically with sunlight, and activating humic acids to produce hydrogen peroxide-an oxidizing agent that also helps to keep the water clear-naturally. All barley products are best used in ponds for their value as preventative.
- Matures pond water chemistry and buffers pH
- Disperses quickly by simple broadcast of pellets into the pond or packing in a porous fabric sock and suspending in pond or available chamber in skimmer or filter
- Releases decomposition by-products immediately
- Works year round
Please note: Microbe-Lift Barley Straw Pellets will leave a residual on the bottom of the pond. The bacteria in the Microbe-Lift products as well as Microbe-Lift Sludge Away will digest this organic residual. Fish will not eat the barley pellets as they contain no food value.
