Im just in the process of doing this 75kg of Salt for 8000 gals of aweek removed as much of the weed/plant as possible before adding ssalt in doses mixed with pond water before adding.
doesnt seem to be re growing so far, and whats left seems to be going slightly brownish (hopefully dying).

Hi Phil
I'm not to keen on adding salt just in case I need to medicate a any time , I'm not sure if any off the blanket weed killers will help remove it either
