When I had to SLAM back in March due to my own laziness/stupidity, I almost quit too early. It ended up taking 6 days longer than when I was tempted to stop the SLAM. There was something that continued to consume the chlorine overnight - even after what seemed like a good OCLT. My FC levels were into the high 20s and even a small change in sample size can throw off the DPD test when you need to use 50 drops.
Haven't had a problem since then and I'm glad I heeded the advice here.
Yeah so that is part of my issue in my head....with 50 drops a tiny speed up or down can make a HUGE difference.
9 PM was 54 drops, 5 AM 51 drops, that is 1.5 PPM change. I test again and I get two drops, test a third time and get 3 drop difference again. I wish for these big SLAM's I could use something else besides drops.
Thus the SLAM continues.....
