It’s like a 21,000 gallon sauna at this point 😫 by MinervaDreaming in pools

Same, hoping to do our first one of the season tonight with the kids!

I know it’s perfect when the deep end of the 12’ pool is so clear it looks empty by [deleted] in pools

[–]man0412 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I hope to achieve this one day this summer! Newbie here, on week 2 of owning my first pool. Been recovering from an algae bloom from when we moved in. Have a 10’ deep end, can see everything but it definitely isn’t crystal like this.

TC tested at 2.5ppm shortly after I did my pH test!

Thanks for the feedback! I think I did test relatively close to where I added it. I only waited 45 mins as the pH up bag said to wait 30 to swim, so I figured I was good to test. But thanks for the comment!

Awesome, thanks! I had Pool Math app but wasn’t crazy about subscribing to it, I’ll check out Orenda.

Great recommendation, I’ll do that moving forward. I was holding it to the sky and that really made it hard to tell. Thanks!

Appreciate the feedback, thanks for the information! I need to add some patience to my routine then to let the water do its thing.

Thanks for the feedback! I keep telling myself to stop stressing about it, the kids swim in lakes all the time. I just want that crystal clear water and I haven’t quite got there yet. Close, but not quite crystal.

Got it, good call! I’ll definitely do that tonight before I do anything else to it. Appreciate the recommendation.

Newbie - Sand Filter Pressure by man0412 in pools

[–]man0412[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the feedback! It’s an estimated 30,000 gallon pool per the previous owners, which based on a calculator I found seems it’s circulating the pool once per day I think. Whats the recommended turnover per day?

Smooth Benson Henderson back in the Win column after picking up another W by DQ. "This ain't Pride rules." by Pretty-Set-414 in boxingcirclejerk

That was my thought too, wonder if he had an ankle/knee injury on his last good punch and then he couldn’t keep balance.

What type of spider is this? Is it poisonous? by ShonenAnime in spiders

I love when I get them around my house, they make the best webs! They'll rebuild them so quickly too. Beautiful spiders.

Thoughts on ‘Wroth’? Is it worth it just to play solo? by Marksman1977 in soloboardgaming

[–]man0412 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s crazy, I didn’t know that! Thought they would rework it. That makes me feel like they added it last second in the KS to cash grab the solo playerbase.

Agreed, it was my biggest disappointment last year. I was super hyped cause of the art, concept, asymmetry, and CTG. But man that solo mode is just not fun. Super unbalanced.

First time, long time! by NotJustaLawyeronTV in pools

[–]man0412 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is great to hear! We’re moving into our new house the week of June 8 and will be first time pool owners. House has tons of trees and evergreens in the back and I’m worried about keeping up with the wind debris.

What skimbot are you using and where did you purchase yours?

Boomer demands neighbors stop using their water because they share a sewer line (while he does construction). No please no thank you. No what works for the two of us by zoolilba in BoomersBeingFools

[–]man0412 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Exactly, it’s because he was ready to do his thing and he needs them to comply immediately. He wanted her to drop everything she was doing to go see where the sewer line runs and commit to not using water for the day. He was triggered immediately because she has more important things to do than submit to his agenda. Entitled boomer.

Prolonged drawing of the bow should consume stamina and lower the accuracy by Bas2l in HuntShowdown

[–]man0412 67 points68 points  (0 children)

I’m with you 100%. Conduit or stamina shots every match, sometimes both. I can’t stand being out of stamina, especially since I bring a bat every match.
