You're not going to believe this but I was watching one of your videos with your cat showing up and I said quietly to myself "wish I had a gray cat like that"...a few days later a gray cat showed up almost identical to yours. How about that?! Life is funny sometimes!
wow.. we just bought a home with a 5 acre pond that is in bad shape. We have reached out to Pond Guy and i would agree that their customer service is outstanding. Thank you for confirming that this is the best company to go with. Best of luck
I can tell how much you love nature and want to take care of it. I wish everyone in the world felt as you do. God has given us many gifts that we need to take care of.
Don't have a pond, don't plan to have a pond -- but this was INTERESTING and I watched the entire thing! hahaha Seriously, grew up on a farm and had several algae-filled ponds that looked like this, remember dad and grandpa having the extension agent come over with advice a few times but they never cleaned up like this! Congrats, and enjoy that water :-)
My last house had a pond with a stone covered bridge over a part of it in the backyard surrounded by willow trees. It was beautiful. We would find old fashioned keys in the pond all the time. I don’t know why they were there but it was neat to find them! The pond was the reason we purchased the home. There was an outdoor fireplace and in the winter friends would come over to ice skate and warm themselves by the fire with hot cocoa. Your video made me miss that!!!
My heart always goes out to you when something doesn't go quite as planned like how the water was too fake looking at first or when you thought you had ruined your kitchen counters, as you are such a kind and genuine person that it's hard to see you be disappointed by something. I think that the pond looks amazing - great job!
Great job Mary. I love your pond. Such a lovely area to just relax and be closer to God. The deck looks beautiful. A weather vane would look good on top of the Pavilion roof and some metal flamingos or other large bird statues by the side of pond on the grass. My imagination is going crazy with ideas. xx
Mary, I love your commitment to all your projects!! That in itself is a great Life lesson! The pond looks fantastic! We are blessed with fresh Spring water on our property as well....
Beautiful turnout for your efforts. It looks lovely. I love that pond and your whole area is so lovely. How nice for them to guide you and give instructions through it all. As you mentioned the customer service is wonderful and that is something that is missing more and more, so it is nice to find a good reliable business who knows how much it is needed to keep the customer knowledgeable so the product is used for best results. Very excited for you and it will be fun to see how it works throughout the winter and into spring. Best of luck........knowing you love that pond as well.......it is beautiful!
Mary, I just have a small fish pond, the dirty green water drives me crazy! So to make a long story short, I just used 4 water hyacinth and within a few weeks my water was clear! The hyacinth multiplied and bloomed. The hyacinth cost me $8.00. Very easy fix. You should try these. I enjoy your channel so much.
@@daniellewhorton7507 you are 100% correct but I just remove them as they multiply and give them away. Mary's large pond would probably be a big job to control them, but again you are right.

My grandparents lived next door and had a pond when I was growing up. Don’t have one now, but found this interesting to watch. Aeration is frequently a factor in helping your pond, especially the fish in it when the temperatures get really hot in the summer. Yours is looking better definitely.
That was fun. We went through the same process with our pond and the pond guy. They’re great! I highly recommend the Kasco fountain and LED RGB light kit. You won’t be disappointed. Thanks for sharing the experience.
lol! I can see from the comments that many people like me don't have a pond, but still enjoyed your video. I kept thinking, oh I wish she had a boat ! and then there it was. happy ending all way round :) Beautiful improvements !
Hi Mary, it was amazing the results of all your hard work on your pond, I believe it was all worth it.. your property is beautiful. How deep is your pond and could you swim in it. You are an amazing, creative and hard-working lady and I enjoy watching your videos. When does your day begin and when does it end, I’m always amazed at all you accomplish in a single video. Thank you for sharing your beautiful creative nature.
Pond is looking great!! When we had our pond in OH I refused to used anything that i considered any kind of chemical. I used an aerator & dye. We were told some algae bloom in the spring is good and a sign that your pond is healthy. We raked it off, it was great addition to our compost. Without chemicals I felt better about swimming & fishing in it. Good luck with yours
Oh Mary, you are so sweet. You made me laugh with your reenactment of "The Notebook" I love that. You pond is so beautiful too. Thank you for sharing it with us.
I don´t speak English, but I love this video. My name is Suely, I live in Brazil, in São Paulo. São Paulo is a big city. I love the decorating farm house. kiss.
I love your pond. A friend of mine has two which are divided by a small bit of land. She has a water spray feature in the middle that lights in the evening. Beautiful.
We put in a pond guy system a few years ago- it has made a huge difference, The water was swampy and black. The surface covered with something like lilly pads called water dollar. Our water is nice and clean now. A healthy light brown and no water dollar.
Loved the fact that the family had a helping hand with the first parts of cleaning it up. Grew up on a farm and we were fortunate to have a live stream going in and a over flow going out so even having cattle and horses, we didn't usually have the issue with algae. Your pond is looking really great
Mary, I don't have a Pond, so just have 2 Enjoy Urs😂U&John&son make a Good Family Team(also, kitty🐈) It looks So Much Healthier now! It's always good 2 learn New things! TFS! Hopefully, Ur FAM will b able 2 Enjoy Ur Pond more in Spring&Summer!💗🤗
Thank you. I was thinking our pond may be just a stinky gross thing. There is HOPE! YAY! God bless you. Your pond and property are gorgeous! Love the boat, we should get one, how lovely! I love paddleboarding but too afraid to use them in our muck 😝
Mary I don't even have a pond and still found myself watching the entire video ❤️👍it' turned out beautiful ❤️ love your little nod to "the notebook" 😉❤️
Wow! It looks so different, awesome! The Notebook moment was great! The boat will be so fun. Thanks for the how to, very interesting. My Aunt has a pond out in Deerfield. Your pond is a good size.
