Good morning đ Itâs the 1st Monday of the Autumn season, so I wanted to share a beautiful Waterfall this morning that sits right under a gorgeous Red Maple tree. It has turned to Fall color now, and coupled with the sound of the Water, it makes for a very nice place to sit and prepare for the day.
I hope this has helped you find that Moment of Zen for your day as well. đđ»
Have a great day!

Good Morning! âïž What a storm we had last night! â âĄïž đ„ Here we are changing seasons⊠Bye bye Summer, Hello Fall đđ We have literally been on a West TN weather seesaw⊠It was 100 degrees on the last day of summer, So Hot đ„” Then the next day a 51 degree morning⊠Then back up close to 90 today, but guess what – down into the 40âs tonightđź
Oh well, again the old saying holds true, âIf you donât like the weather, just you waitââŠ
Now itâs on to breakfast and then a little work in the Garden! I Love â€ïž Fall!
“In the garden, Autumn is, indeed the crowning glory of the year, bringing us the fruition of months of thought and care and toil. Â
And at no season, safe perhaps in Daffodil time, do we get such superb color effects as from August to November.”

Fall Flowers đ Bon fires đ„ colorful foliage đ decorating for Halloween đ burning leaves đ Football đ cooler weather â€ïž
What does Fall mean to you? What are YOUR favorite things about the Fall season?
Here is a link to the Farmers Almanac that really breaks down what the Equinox means –

Have a wonderful Equinox! Tomorrow the days will be shorter and the nights will grow longer all the way to the Solstice in late December.

Good Morning! Brace yourself⊠This is the last morning of late Summer⊠tomorrow is the Autumnal Equinox, ie; The 1st day of Fall đ
I always try to post proactive things you can do to keep your Water Garden clean and your Koi healthy over the Fall & Winter. Things like â Cutting your aquatic plants back, using pond/Koi netting, watching your skimmer more closely, feeding Cool Temp Koi Food, etc. â Thereâs another very important thing you can do to really keep your ecosystem active and working wellÂ
â Switch to Cool Season Beneficial Bacteria!
Our Cold Water Beneficial Bacteria works and keeps on working when the plants and fish arenât active and really helps the quality of your Pond Water! It is extremely effective at reducing sludge, dead and decaying leaves and plants, built up fish waste & excess nutrients like ammonia, nitrates & phosphates. These things make for poor water quality, reduced water clarity and can have catastrophic effects on your fishes health.
The next piece of âLow Hanging Fruitâ im going to serve up is this : Every Pond should have a floating Pond thermometer  Our finned friends are cold blooded & water temperature is very important when it comes to seasonal feeding times. Pick one up at Carters Nursery, Pond & Patio today.
The last Pond Tip for today is this â âOur Koi have eaten well this year & have put on a good bit of fat to get them through the Cool Season ahead. Now is the time that many of my clients and fellow Koi enthusiasts start asking a very important questionâŠ
â When do I stop feeding regular food and start feeding Cool Season Koi Food?
Switching to a Cool Temperature Koi Food is very important for the health of your Koi!
Well thats enough for today  I just want you all to be ready with the tools and things you need to easily succeed during the changing of the seasons.Â
Tomorrow is the start of a new Season! Are You ready for some Fall? đ đ đ„
PS: Join us October 1st for a FREE Pond Maintenance Workshop!

The older I get, the quicker these seasonal changes seem to come⊠WOW! Are we already looking at the END of Summer?
Summer is going out on a HOT note! High 90âs today & we may very well see 100 degrees tomorrow! đ„” But, then on the official 1st day of Fall (Thursday the 22nd) the high is only gonna be around 80 degrees⊠Do the seasons know itâs time?
âDuring the autumnal equinox, the sun shines directly on the equator, and the northern and southern hemispheres get the same amount of rays. The alignment officially occurs this year on Thursday, September 22â
So the 1st full day of Fall is on the 22nd. Are you ready for Fall?
âLyric night of the lingering Indian summer, Shadowy fields that are scentless but full of singing, Never a bird, but the passionless chant of insects, Ceaseless, insistent. The grasshopper’s horn, and far-off, high in the maples, The wheel of a locust leisurely grinding the silence Under a moon waning and worn, broken, Tired with summer. Let me remember you, voices of little insects, Weeds in the moonlight, fields that are tangled with asters, Let me remember, soon will the winter be on us, Snow-hushed and heavy. Over my soul murmur your mute benediction, While I gaze, O fields that rest after harvest, As those who part look long in the eyes they lean to, Lest they forget them.â
~ Sara Teasdale
