I've been reading a lot in here but would appreciate some specific feedback in my case.
We moved in the fall so this is our first time opening the pool. Water was pretty darn clear when the winter cover came off but a little low (8 inches below return) because we accidentally pumped out some pool water when pumping off the cover. So over the past week we have been filling the water a little at a time from the well and the water was starting to look a little tinted. last night it was finally full enough to run the pump so we added some cya (was at 0) and enough liquid chlorine to reach 10 ppm shock. Next thing we know the water is heavily tinted green so I went and bought some glb sequa sol today and added the entire bottle. Also added some ph reducer as we were at 7.8. How long should it take to get the water blue again? What else should I do? Does the cartridge filter need to be removed and cleaned more than usual or still only when psi raises 20% or so?
