Is it too late to begin the treatment process for my above ground pool?

About a month ago my roommate bought and filled up an above ground pool. We have yet to begin the treatment process, and the pool just recently turned green. It is clear that the pool is very dirty and most likely filled with insects.

Is it too late for the water to be treated effectively and safely? Do we need to refill the pool with clean water?

Thanks!

Answer
It is most likely caused by green algae and you would need to treat it asap! I cant see it so I don't know for sure how bad it is. Just Balance water and regulate pH. Check/clean filter system. And Adjust valve for optimum circulation and allow to run 24 hours a day until pool is clear. Automatic cleaners can help, backwash if necessary. If the prior steps did not kill the green algae, shock the pool intensely. Good luck and have fun swimming this summer!
