Green pool

[Nate1975]

I have been keeping my FC around 4 since opening slam. I have noticed some yellow looking stains on the bottom. They brush away into a cloud of yellow. Now the water is starting to turn a light shade of green. I am keeping PH around 7.5. Have not shown any CC since opening slam. Suggestions???

TA is 150. pH is through the roof...over 8.0. Just tested 2 nights ago and it was 7.5. CC is 0 and FC is 3. CYA is 30

Sounds like you have algae and need to SLAM Process the pool to kill it.

Could this possibly be caused by pollen? I know our pollen counts are crazy high at the moment. It almost seems like the water is clear when it all settles to the bottom, then when I sweep and stir it up it changes the water to an almost green tint. Does pollen not get filtered easily? Just wondering if this could be my problem instead of algae and how do you know the difference??
