Some lessons learned from last few years, including this season:
1. Vacuum to waste as much as you can to get the algae out of the system / pool
2. Avoid using Walmart / big store liquid chlorine (I used Walmart's 1 gal. bottle of liquid chlorine @10% in the past, which was cheaper than a local store 5 gallon jug per gallon) - aside from the price, I liked the convenience of smaller jug / bottle and Walmart is waaay closer to me
3. As algae die, vacuum to waste again (I did #1 and #3 this season, and the water quickly cleaned up compared to last few years)
