While you're following Watermom's instructions, you'll be able to keep your pool in OK condition, if you pour about a gallon of plain 6% bleach into your pool every evening (not: morning!).

But, do get the OTO pretty quickly. If you do have stabilizer in the water, the chlorine will not dissipate in the sunlight every day, and it will get too high. Once you have the OTO, skip the bleach dose, if the OTO shows dark yellow in the evening.
