Re: No Electric & Adding Chemicals
AFAIK a week is a safe number. For CYA it's generally better to wait a bit too long and get the right reading rather than testing too soon, going "OMG it's too low" and adding more, then a week later wondering how it got so high...
Given how quickly your CYA went out of the sock you probably don't have to wait a week, but I don't know how much less... and there's not a big advantage to testing sooner anyways.
I thought it takes a week to get an accurate reading?
