Only if you managed to exactly add the right amount to get to 15ppm. If it is still 15 in the morning you are good.

I almost cried. But now I have kept it so high for so long I am petrified to let it drop. What do I do? Let it drop to 5 and keep it that way?? How often do I check it now?

Yes, you can let it drop to the top of your recommended FC range. Check it again this afternoon. Check the FC every day from now on. I haven't read back through the whole thread, but when you were having trouble passing the overnight test did you pull the ladder out and clean it? Sometimes algae hides in the nooks and crannies of the ladder.
I haven't put the ladder in because of that exact reason. I pulled filter out yesterday and it was really dirty so I'm thinking maybe that was part of the problem. I'm going on vacation next week my mom is coming out every other day. She won't be testing the water but she wil l put in bleach how much should she pug in and I'm not sure what to do about running the pump. Should I get a timer?
I am going guess that even after you clean and bleach the ladder, when you add it back into the pool, you will consume some extra CL.
Be ready for this.
Be ready for this.
Thank you! I'm scared to do anything to it right now! Took 6 weeks to get pool ready!
I am not trying to scare you, just have some extra CL on hand so when the ladder is reintroduced, and debris or algae on or inside the ladder will consume CL. I think I would bring the CL o shock levels based on your CYA and then add the ladder while to pump us running. Test your CL a couple extra times to see your CL stays above CYA based minimum.
I wil be gone 7 days and I do have a cover but my mom will be here every other day. Was hoping to avoid cover if she can help me.
