Trip to Ireland was worth it - I just didn't want to mimic the green in my water :(

Good Morning,

I typically have my pool opened by 4/15. This year, we were in Ireland for over a week and I was not comfortable opening before we left. While we were gone, we had 2+ days of temps in the 80s and brilliant sunshine. I removed the cover this morning to a beautiful color of green:(

Numbers are as follows:

pH 7.3
FC 0
CC 0
TC 0
TA 30
CYA 30
Salt 1600

This is the second year I am opening by myself. Last year was virtually clear water. This year - not so much.
Just checking my process here -
-Clear debris
-turn on pump
-Tackle the pH to raise 7.5-7.8
-add liquid chlorine to raise to SLAM level
-run pump 24/7 and maintain shock levels as frequently as needed

Thanks for the votes of confidence.
