Hi all! Uncovered my pool I. May and it was almost clear but lots of leaves at the bottom. Winter cover had a rip in it.
Filled to skimmer level and began to filter. Life got in the way and a week without attending to pool equals a greenish brown mess. There are so many little seeds, tree flower buds, and cottony stuff from surrounding trees that I could skim for hours.
I started the SLAM yesterday morning, keeping the FC at 20, CYA is 50, pH is High at 8.2. Ive brushed, vaccuumed, cleaned filter cartridge 3 times a day and barely seeing progress in pool. I have one more free day to focus on the pool before I have to go back to work which means attending to pool early am and after 6:00 pm.
Am I missing anything? Should I just keep the faith and continue the battle?
