What is the brown/green stuff on the ponds?
Duckweed growth is caused by fertilizers and nutrients draining into the wetlands and ponds from the golf course. While it may not be esthetically pleasing, it is not harmful to the pond or wildlife, and generally disappears during the winter months due to increased water flow. Along with Castle & Cooke, we are looking for ways to control the duckweed year round, without harming the environment.
