GOLF COURSE POND
NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT

Stop Algae at the Source.
Protect Your Golf Course
Ponds With PhosLocker.

A smarter, sustainable way to reduce algae, improve irrigation water quality, and support Golf Pond Nutrient Management for healthier turf.

WHY GOLF COURSE PONDS STRUGGLE WITH ALGAE

Golf course ponds collect runoff, fertilizers, stormwater, and organic debris. Over time, this creates high phosphate levels in pond water and allows algae to grow. Once blooms begin, they affect water clarity, cause odors, and reduce irrigation water quality.

Many courses rely on copper sulfate or algaecides. These treatments kill algae quickly but release even more nutrients when algae die. This creates a repeating cycle many superintendents face:

Kill algae → nutrients rise → algae returns

When irrigation water comes from a pond with high phosphate in pond sediment, turf can suffer and require more fertilizer. This makes golf course pond management harder and raises long-term operational costs.

WHY GOLF COURSE PONDS STRUGGLE WITH ALGAE

INTRODUCING PHOSLOCKER

PhosLocker is a simple, effective pond phosphate remover that captures phosphorus and other nutrients before algae can use them.
It locks nutrients into a reusable organic form that can support turf instead of feeding algae.

Cleaner, clearer ponds

Reduced dependence
on copper

Safer irrigation
water for turf health

Lower fertilizer demand
across the course

A long-term, proactive
algae solution

BUILT TO FIT INTO YOUR CURRENT MAINTENANCE PROGRAM

PhosLocker works smoothly with existing tools, including:

  • Algaecides with lower required dosages
  • Aeration systems that improve dissolved oxygen
  • Ultrasonic algae treatments
  • Biological and diatom-based pond programs
  • Nanobubble technologies

Instead of treating algae after it forms, PhosLocker treats the cause by reducing nutrients.

TRADITIONAL TREATMENTS VS PHOSLOCKER

Side-by-side comparison

Traditional Pond Tools:

  • Short-term results
  • Nutrient release after algae die
  • Fast algae return
  • Irrigation water may stress turf
  • Higher long-term costs

PhosLocker:

  • Locks nutrients before algae can use them
  • Supports long-lasting pond clarity
  • Improves irrigation water quality
  • Reduces chemical dependency
  • Allows nutrients to be reused across the course

SUPPORTING SOLUTIONS
FOR COMPLETE POND HEALTH

Many fresh pond golf course locations use a multipronged approach that includes biological treatments, aeration, ultrasonic systems, and nanobubble technology. PhosLocker enhances all of them by removing the nutrients algae rely on.

PhosLocker is a simple, effective pond phosphate remover that captures phosphorus and
other nutrients before algae can use them. It locks nutrients into a reusable organic form that
can support turf instead of feeding algae.
