Looking for a little guidance on whether or not I'm on the right track at this point. Must admit I'm starting to get a little dizzy from walking around the pool so much from pouring bleach in. Seriously I am a little frustrated this has not taken hold yet. Was hoping the FC would hold a little more steady. Maybe I'm doing something not quite right. Also. getting a little nervous as tomorrow I will be away most of the day and fear I will have just wasted two days of effort and money.
Here is my log. Any direction is appreciated. Thanks.
