Do I have this right..

Check water at night for drop. 1 point drop is okay. test shows in the am 2.5 CH so add 2 qts to get it back up to 5 for the day. repeat each day.. Is that about it...

If you are asking whether or not a loss of 1 ppm or less of FC overnight is ok, then yes, that is correct.

I cannot tell you what is a proper FC level for your pool though unless I know you CYA level. 5 ppm may be ok, but we need the CYA level to truly know.

Just trying to get a feel for best time to add chlorine. Morn are night.

It is best to add chlorine in the evening, but any time of day is alright especially if you add chlorine consistently at the same time of day.
