Like the title says, looks like I'm going to have to SLAM for the first time. Last Monday I worked 12 hours and was running late so I didnt get to test/dose with chlorine. I asked my wife to do it but she didnt get to it until 6:45pm. I also noticed FC levels were dropping faster than usual the past week or so.
The water has been crystal clear and CC has been under .5 but yesterday I noticed some green (very little and very faint) at the bottom of the pool and I knew it.
Did the OCLT last night. Tested after dark at 8:30pm and FC was 4.0. Then tested again this morning before sun up and it tested 2.2 with a loss of 1.8ppm.
My pool is small (12×30 and 1730 gallons) so changes typically happen fast and I dont want this thing to go full bloom before I can fix it. We have had a lot of rain lately and the pool is under an oak tree (which I plan on removing) so I constantly empty the skimmer basket and have to manually skim as well.
This is the first time SLAMing so I'll have to read up and get a good grasp on it before I attempt it.
