FC= 6, CYA= 40, PH=7.8
Been religiously following TFP this year and so far so good. Only use LC, but when I am away for a few days at my cabin, I have to use tablets. Trying to minimize there use so do not increase CYA much so trying to determine how much to put in to dissolve while I am away.
My estimate is that the tablets dissolve in about 5-6 days. so if each tablet is 8oz and pool math say 8oz will raid FC by 5.5 and I am losing about 3ppm of FC daily, for 6 days gone I would need 5 x 3 = 15ppm for the 6days so three tablets or 2 tablets if gone for 4 days. Am I thinking correctly? Or do you load up on them and remove what is left when return?
