I always like to keep healthy plants in my pond.Prevention is always better than cure. Good strong healthy plants more resistant to attack by pests or diseases. So start by making sure that your soil is in good condition. The sow and plant varieties. If they are planted out and keep them happy and they can offer to your care.

Boil it first and you should be ok.
