A pond that has turned green, filled with muck or been swallowed by weeds can nearly always be brought back.
Ponds are forgiving up to a point. A summer of neglect leaves green water and a smelly bottom. A few years leaves a thick layer of muck, tangled plants, a dead pump and a liner that is hidden under growth. The good news is that most of these ponds can be brought back.
The first step is an honest look. Is the liner sound? Is the pump alive? Are the fish still there? Clearing growth, removing muck and restoring flow is usually worth doing. When the liner is gone or the shape is wrong, a rebuild may be the better plan.
Check the liner, pump and fish.
Remove growth and muck.
Replace worn pumps and filters.
Patch or replace if damaged.
Divide and replant what is worth keeping.
A plan keeps it from happening again.
