    Unhappy Learned My Lesson

    OK. I put our pool at the new house last summer and bought Ben's kit and went BBB. Great. I thought I was doing pretty good.

    Opened this year to green pool. A week later it was crystal clear. Doing good so far.

    We had a couple weeks where it was cool (Central Illinois) and lots of rain so I would test every other day. Then I got to the point where I would just add jug(3Qt) a bleach every other day.

    Family pulled the cover off last Friday to swim and...BAM!!!...dark green.

    I'll have it clear in a couple days.

    Note to self. TEST WATER AT LEAST ONCE A DAY! ESPECIALLY AFTER IT RAINS!
