Spring Pond Care: Getting Your Water Garden Ready

Spring Pond Care: Getting Your Water Garden Ready

As winter fades and temperatures rise, spring is the perfect time to refresh and prepare your pond for the year ahead. Here are a few pro tips to ensure your pond stays healthy and beautiful:

  • Clean out debris: Remove fallen leaves, excess algae, and other organic matter.
  • Check your pump and filtration system: Clean filters and ensure your pump is working efficiently.
  • Do a partial water change: Replace 10–20% of the water to maintain balance without shocking the system.
  • Inspect liner and plumbing: Look for damage caused by freezing temperatures.
  • Feed fish sparingly: As the water warms, gradually reintroduce feeding with a high-quality, seasonal koi food.

A little care early in the season goes a long way in preventing costly issues later on.
