Opened the pool and set it up today since we are no longer planning to leave at all next week. I am confused about what I am supposed to be doing though. So this is what we did so far...

In the 1000 gallon 10' x 30" pool we filled with water. When it was about half way full we added 1/2 cup bleach. Tonight, we added 1/8 cup of the kem-tech dichlor, and 1/8 cup of polyquat. I did not check any levels of anything so far, we were going to see where we are at in the morning.

Does this sound right? I got confused as to what the dosage should be since we already have the dichlor on hand. I wasn't sure how to do the simple start up while also trying to build the cya.

Also, I just realized it said to put in the borax with the dichlor, which we forgot about.
