Dear Isreal,

I have used it with ponds that maintain a constant water level and with ponds that are seasonal. As bentonite dries it cracks so it is less effective to seal seasonal ponds unless you add more bentonite if and when the pond dries.

Andrew,
what kind of pond have you applied the bentonite to? A pond that
mantains a constant water level all year? Or a pond used to irrigate in
summer? Is there any problem if the bentonite get dry?
