Testing Laminar Crystal Pool Water on Sept 21, 2008

Testing Laminar Crystal Pool Water
Sept 21, 2008
by Chris in Key Largo

This is the time of the equinox. Today, my laminar crystal pool has thick meringue-looking material floating on top of the pool that covers it up to 80% of the top. Seen from below using a snorkel, the whole pool is foggy with small white dots and looks like a “blizzard”.

Throughout this past week the top of the pool has ranged from the thin to thick meringue looking material and also sometime dollops of thin foamy looking material that are in elongated shapes. Sometime there is nothing on the top. The water “looks” clear from the top, although as I have said before, underwater small white dots may be seen, sometime moderate amounts and sometimes in voluminous amounts. I have pictures.

When I get into the water, the water again feels “thick”-I can feel the higher specific gravity in the water causing a pushing feeling on my legs. The water is thicker than usual and when I lay on my stomach, my feet do not fall to the bottom of the pool as far.

The pool is not always like this or if it is, not to this degree. I am thinking the time of the equinox has something to do with these occurrences. The pool is a 15 foot diameter, 4 foot deep Intex (trademark) pool in Key Largo Florida.

The night of Sept 20, 2008 I drew out some pool water and on Sept 21 added celtic sea salt that I knew contained no Ormus in. I knew this to be so, as the wet process did not make a precipitate from this celtic sea salt.

I did a wet process on the pool water, then on my tap water, then on my tap water that had laminar crystal in it for 1 hour then on my tap water that had been filtered through the refrigerator filter.

These are the results:

Pool water: Initial pH 9.92 and it took 12 drops of standard lye solution to have the pH rise to 10.78

Tap water: Initial pH 9.58 and it took 4 drops of standard lye solution to have the pH rise to 10.9

Laminar tap water: Initial pH 9.2 and it took 4 drops of standard lye solution to have the pH rise to 10.8

Filtered tap water: Initial pH 9.1 and it took 3 drops of standard lye solution to have the pH rise to 10.9

I do not know what may be occurring as I have found no studies on laminar crystals in pool water.
