First test numbers of season

[jimk0512]

I'm OK with not worrying about the CYA until the water is clear to the bottom.

But after that, can I use the Trichlor tablets that I have already have on hand to raise the CYA? I can keep the pH at 7.2 to 7.4 with the box of borax which is sitting next to the tablet bucket.

I know, I could go to the Leslie's store and buy CYA. But I'm still unhappy with them because of the problems I had with my pool several years ago when they were testing my water and selling me chemicals. Haven't been back in their store since.
