New pool owner, got the water looking okay and testing pretty good about a week and a half ago but then went out of town for 4 day and then lost power for 4 days (no running pump). Currently it’s pretty green and cloudy. I can see the bottom of the 4ft end but can’t see the bottom of the 10ft end. Just did my first test with the TF-Pro. Test 7 hours ago was by Leslie’s, 5 hours ago was mine with TF-Pro.

Some of the numbers are drastically different. Is it more likely that I did something incorrectly? Or that Leslie’s is just really inaccurate?

Also, with these numbers, what are my next best steps to get the pool blue, clear, and safe again?

Leslie's is inaccurate. Stop pool store testing. Trust your kit.

Start the SLAM process to clear your pool. Print it out, read it three times, and keep it with you. Link-->SLAM Process

If your CYA test results falls between the lines on the vial, round up to the next larger number.
Whith your CYA result estimated at 58, round up to 60.
