Are you using iodized salt or pool salt? I've read that the iodine in the iodized salt will leave yellow staining in the pool.
Plant watering with salt water pool water?
Watering a plant with any type of salt water will cause the plant to wilt. Because of the salt outside the plant cells, water leaves the cells in a process called osmosis. With less water in the cells, the cells shrivel up. If they shrivel up, the plant loses it's ability to hold itself up.

What should you do if your saltwater pool is cloudy even though the display shows you have the correct levels and will algaecide work even though it is relatively free of algae?
Cloudy water really does not care what kind of sanitizer you use be it a salt system or tablet or whatever. The cloudy water is either a water chemistry problem or a filtration problem. Filtration and chemistry have to work together in order to clear the pool if one is not working properly then the pool will not clear. First take your pool water to a swimming pool store for a complete analysis including phosphates. Then balance and treat the water as they indicate. If that does not clear the pool inspect the filter system. If you have a DE filter you want to check the grids or fingers for holes and make sure all "O" rings in the filter are in good condition. If the filter has a multiport valve make sure it is in good order. If it is a sand filter and the sand is older than 5 years replace the sand in the filter. Also make sure the multiport valve is in good order and all the gaskets are in good condition. If this does not clear the pool have the TDS (total dissolved solids) checked. High TDS can cause cloudy water. You can also try flocking the pool but use this as a last resort.
How do you convert a fresh water pool to a salt water pool?
Add salt
Can you use salt and chlorine in your pool?
Yes as a mater of fact that is what salt water pool normally is. With a salt water pool there is a electronic salt water chlorinator installed that uses the salt in the water to create chlorine. However if you don't have a salt water chlorinator and prefer the feeling of a salt water pool then there is no reason not to add salt to the pool as well as keeping up the chlorine yourself.
Do you ad salt to a salt water pool?
No. salt water is salt water. it already has salt in it
Can you convert a painted pool into a salt water pool?
Simply put any pool can be a salt water pool, even an above ground pool.
What is a saltwater swimming pool?
A salt water swimming pool is a pool that has had salt added to it in order to be able to use the salt in water that is circulated through the filtration system and run it through a chlorinator. This is a set of elements that electronically create chlorine gas that is almost instantly dissolved into the water to sanitise it. The concentration of salt in the water is about 1/8 that of sea water or about the same as that in tears.
