Finished cleaning the grids and put them back in the filter and closed it up. Fired up the pump and pressurized the filter. Everything runs great for about 15-30 minutes. Pressure is 20-25 and water is running great through the spa and pool jets. Then after the 15-30 minutes the pressure goes up to 35 psi and starts slowing down the water flow through the spa and pool. I don’t understand why. I run a backwash and the everything runs fine again for 15 minutes. What is causing this ir what am I doing wrong ?

That is the classic sign of algae in your pool water. Can you post a full set of water chemistry test results from your own test kit?
I suggest you read through Pool Care Basics - Trouble Free Pool and even look at a few of our videos TFP-TV - Trouble Free Pool
