Caring for green saltwater pool.Very simple. I have just done this a week ago.

1. Shock the pool and leave for a couple of days. Yes, you CAN do this. (By the time you are ready to use these pool chemicals will have dissapeared)2. When green starts to clear up, allow the water to go through filtering system with chlorinator switched off. (As you have shocked the pool there is no need for this to be on). I ran this for about 12 hours. You need to keep an eye on the filter. I had to clean (backwash) my sand filter often in these 12 hours. 3. When you are happy with the clarity of the water, run system as you normally would. My pool is pristine.

Why is powdered lime sprayed on lakes in the spring instead of the fall?

Powdered lime is sprayed on lakes in the spring because this timing coincides with the onset of the growing season for aquatic plants and algae. Applying lime in the spring helps to neutralize acidity and increase alkalinity, promoting a healthier ecosystem as organisms begin to grow and reproduce. Additionally, spring treatments can effectively counteract the effects of winter runoff and enhance water quality during the critical early months of aquatic productivity.
