Nutri-Defense Packets, 24 - 4 oz packets

Click to Enlarge How does Nutri-Defense work?

Nutri-Defense works by binding up excess nutrients, feeding Pond-Clear bacteria and polishing pond water. After Nutri-Defense has bound up the excess nutrients, the nutrients sink to the bottom, out of the water column. It is at this stage that Pond-Clear is able to further break the nutrients down, reducing the chance of future growth. Nutri-Defense allows you to "manage the nutrients" so you can manage water clarity.

    Why is Nutri-Defense so important for my pond's health?
    Nutri-Defense has three unique characteristics.

    First, it binds and sinks free-floating microscopic problem causing nutrients.

    Second, Nutri-Defense promotes Pond-Clear and other natural beneficial bacteria to further break down nutrients.

    Third, Nutri-Defense can also be used as a natural flocculent settling the larger particulate out of the water column, leaving your pond clean and clear.

  • How to apply:
    Do Not open packets. Packets are to be applied directly to the water. Distribute packets from shore or boat. Nutri-Defense packets work best when evenly disbursed across the body of water.

    When to apply:
    In general, 2 Nutri-Defense applications are sufficient for season-long effectiveness when used as part of the 4-Step Eco-System. Nutri-Defense can also be a useful tool after heavy rainfalls, fertilizer applications, or after a chemical application to absorb nutrients from rotting vegetation. When this is the case, follow murky water dosage rate.
