Re: Duckweed

Duckweed. GREAT stuff! If you can keep it! I put it in my veggie
filter. Never had a problem with it and here in CO it only last through
the fall then comes 3-4 months of ice on the pond which kills the duck
weed. And yep, the fish seem to like it a lot. Tried to keep some in
the pond but not much success with that.

===========================
I've seen two kinds of duckweed. The smooth edged one comes back in the
spring. The frilly edged doesn't. I'm in zone 6 and it can get darn cold
here although it doesn't usually last more than a few days at a time.
