Microbe Lift Barley Straw Extract
Microbe Lift Barley Straw Extract
When A pond’s ecosystem is mature and balanced, the water is usually clear and healthy for aquatic life. This maturation process is a function of the microbiological and chemical properties of the water.
Microbe-Lift Barley Straw Liquid and Dry formulations help to mature the pond with natural chenmicals just as a pure mountain stream matures through the years by the introduction of natural breakdown products from trees, plants etc. These natural breakdown products often include Humic and Fulvic acids that have a natural ability to sequester, or tie up, inorganic compounds. So their concentrations in the pond don’t get to the levels that would unbalance the ponds ecosystem. These substances can also lead to natural purification of the pond through a slow release of Hydogen peroxide as they react with sunlight. The Hydrogen peroxide is produced at levels that help purify the water while not having any adverse effects on desirable aquatic life. The sequestering, in conjunction with microbiological cycling, provides a stable natural ecosystem in your pond.
Microbe Lift Barley Straw Extract is a major breakthrough, 100% Natural and organic ingreadients specially formulated to Naturally Balance Pond Water and Imporve Water Clarity enriched with peat and humic acid, this revolutionary formula works faster and better with less mess and cost to apply than bales, pillows, and pads!
