first scrub all clinging algae from the sides and bottom of the pool with a pool brush then use a combination of yellow clear and chlorine shock to treat the water.
after 24 hours test the water for proper PH and free chlorine concentration, if the balance is off add acid or base and re-chlorinate.
most pool and spa stores will test your water sample for free and recommend the proper chemicals to achieve the correct balance.
shock the pool weekly and test the water for correct PH and free chlorine level.
properly cared for a pool will stay sparkling clear all year round and the treatments will run you less than $20 a month to maintain.
Answer
Have a professional pool company come in and give you an estimate. Check your sand filter and make sure it is not in need of replacement, or any other equipment fault. You may need to empty the pool and completely wash it down for algae and mold. You need to keep up the chemicals and cleaning practices and run the pumps during the winter if you don't want this to happen.

Can a solor pool cover cause green water?
I am not sure why this has not been answered. The most common reason for the green is algae growth. If you put on a solar cover and ignore pool maintenance, then the algae will grow as the water heats and when you remove the cover, the pool will be green
