Ok, so here are the before and after. The water is balanced now, except I'm keeping the chlorine a bit high to fight the black algae (Which was there last year and survived the freeze!). Thanks all for the advice.
Drain very green pool?

So, how long was this SLAM process, 26 days or so?? And do you have a count of how many jugs of Liquid Chlorine??

I slammed it for about 3 weeks, then started in on the black algae. Total chlorine is about 21 gallons so far (including what I'm still using to keep the level up for the black algae. Something I noticed was that, since I had to backwash all the time for the first 2 weeks at least, I was losing a lot of stabilizer (and was probably a bit low to begin with, I began all this out of CYA chemical R-013). So I used a lot of chlorine I might not have if I had higher stabilizer levels.So, how long was this SLAM process, 26 days or so?? And do you have a count of how many jugs of Liquid Chlorine??
