Hello,
I found this website AFTER I filled my pool and started using you first seven day recipe with 3cups total bleach and 2 cups total borax. My pool is a deep green with a yellow, brown tint. I did the bucket test today and have the same color results. I did a test today with the hth 6 way and chlorine color was beyond 5 the ph was 8.2, alkalinity was 120 and cya is 0 since I have only used bleach. I filled with well water. I have read your post on filling with well water, but before ordering a bunch of things and dumping and refilling, I wanted to know if there was anything that I needed to add or remove from the regimen. Using the filter that came with the pool, havent upgraded yet. This is my first pool experience. My husband and I are wondering if we are really pool people or if this is too complicated.
Thank you for your help!
