My bad. I am following a bunch of people and one pool is a lot like yours.... I got you mixed up.
If you were in SLAM mode, you would be running 24/7. You aren't doing a slam. We are getting you balanced so we can do an OCLT. Sorry.
See here for OCLT stuff. May as well start reading!

Don't mean to hi-jack the thread, but why shouldn't we store the bleach and MA together?
Together they can create a toxic chlorine gas. They need to be stored away from each other also as the caps are vented.
Also, keep MA away from any metal objects as the acid fumes will cause rusting and even worse problems. See "storage of MA" for more info.
Back to the thread. Post any further questions/comments in a new thread, please.

You are a posting maniac! Slow down. Hahaha!
Okay, you need to brush like crazy to dissolve that stuff and get it off the floor of the pool. If the water is pretty balanced, (I forget), you can get on the pool and attack it that way too.

If I get it off the bottom how should I apply it to the pool put where the filter is in the pump ?

Don't try to "get it off the bottom". That would just be too difficult. Just agitate it until it dissolves and you can no longer see granules or even peyote powder.

You're at the minimum FC for that CYA level. You'll want to make sure it doesn't go any lower than that at any time to avoid problems. 
The reasons I am asking are
1) you do not need more calcium in your vinyl pool
2) your CC level is very high which means that you are fighting algae (even if you can't see it)
a) because of this, you need to slam your pool
b) before slamming you need to LOWER pH to 7.2, not raise it.
