Episode description

This mid-year report from The Pond Digger Podcast offers an overview of the pond industry's current trends and the company's activities. Eric highlights a surge in pond remodels, often driven by new homeowners or a desire for technological upgrades like advanced underwater lighting. He also discusses the expansion of koi collections, potentially influenced by increased time at home, and his personal "Clear Water Guarantee" challenge to an industry sponsor. Finally, the report touches on team growth within his company and a packed schedule of upcoming events and appearances, emphasizing a commitment to enhancing the pond experience for both professionals and enthusiasts.

Key Takeaways:
  • Plan ahead for your pond's needs by scheduling inspections, cleanouts, or considering a summer tune-up before fall.
  • Arm yourself with essential questions to ask specialty pond contractors to protect yourself from potential scams.
  • Investigate new pond technologies, such as smart motors or remote-controlled underwater lighting, to upgrade your pond's functionality and aesthetics.
  • Actively work to maintain truly clear water in your pond, addressing issues like particulates or discolored water before they worsen.
  • Consider the long-term care and legacy of your pond and fish, especially if you anticipate future changes in your ability to care for them.
