Barley Straw is the perfect way of controlling blanketweed and ensuring crystal clear pond water. Not only is it effective, but it's also completely natural. Our bales are the perfect size for a variety of ponds. Each twin pack of barley straw bales come complete with net bags for easy handling and should protect your pond against algae growth for up to 6 months per bale. It's easy to use as well, barley straw extract naturally disrupts the development of each algae bloom and will destabilise blanket weed, so it can be removed through your pond filter.

Swell Barley Straw

Algae can be a real problem left unchecked. Blanketweed can quickly spread over your pond and stop vital light and oxygen from getting through.
It can block drainage, ruin the look of the pond and cause unpleasant odours to permeate the garden. Barley Straw is a cheap and natural way to combat algae.
As it breaks down, algae-busting chemicals are released into the water. Microbes consume the nutrients that algae thrive on too, so it stops any further outbreaks.

Questions and Answers

Q: What does barley straw do in a pond

A: Barley straw works by breaking down in pond water, producing a variety of chemicals that prevents the growth of algae. While these chemicals don't kill algae they send signals to the algae that tell it to stop growing, this is why barley staw is often called 'algae control' and not 'algae treatment' or 'algaecide'. This means that you shouldn't buy barley straw if your pond is already covered in algae, instead you should buy it as a preventative. If your pond already has an algae problem you should use chemical treatments to control it.

Q: How long do you leave barley straw in a pond

A: Once you add barley straw to your pond you should leave it in there as it breaks down. Decaying straw is what produces the barley straw products and chemicals required to control algal blooms. To make barley straw work in your pond, you should just let it decay like any other organic matter, this can take up to six months depending on weather conditions. At this point, you should add more barley straw and maintain a continuous cycle of decaying barley straw in your water.
