I'm confused

I've been using the bleach calculator. How do you calculate for the powder?

One more question, every spring I clean out hundreds of dead worms. I have a powered cover and use water bags to weight the open end. But, the quantity of dead worms is amazing. My guess is I could fill a quart jar with them. Some I skim off the top as floaters, the rest I have to clean out of the pump strainer after I vacuum the pool. I still can't see the bottom, so I know there are more there after I cleaned last night. I don't think I have anymore algae, but the pool is still very cloudy. Is this why?

After I fixed the valve, I vacuumed the pool to waste and added 5 gallons of bleach. This morning the test results are:

temp -72
FC -1
TC -2.5
ph - 6.8
cya - 0 because I haven't added any, I'm returning the Leslies and going to use the commercial stuff later today.

I'm going to add 7 gallons of bleach this morning and hope some will still be there this afternoon when I get home.

Someone here said applying crushed limestone in the grass around your pool will keep the worms away.

I haven't solved my pool issues, yet. It's been raining for the last 3 days, so the cover has been closed. I added my last 5 gallons of bleach yesterday and to do that I had to roll the cover back enough to expose the pool. It looks exactly the same, I didn't bother to test anything. Hopefully this weekend the rain is supposed to stop and I can get back to the pool.
At this rate, maybe by mid-July I can use it.
