Grower FAQs
Algae color is one way to assess algae’s health and function. The color can range from green, which indicates healthy algae, to yellow, red, brown, and clear. Here’s a simple guide on algae colors. Keep in mind that changes in the algae color will not affect its ability to be a food source for soil microbes, unless it’s orange or red, indicating it’s been infected with an algaecide. If algae turns red, orange, or clear, the MyLand team drains the algae into field, cleans the system, and reintroduces healthy algae. Algae grows phenomenally quickly, so a system restart won’t affect the overall impact of the MyLand Service.
