Hello guys
I build my deck last year from Cedar Tone Pressure Treated Southern Pine.
It is exactly 7 months since I finish it. Once the temperatures reach 50's and stay 50F at least I would like to start staining the deck. What should I do first? And what to use? Any help will be greatly appreciate it since I never done this before.
Also if this helps I live in Frankfort Illinois.

I don't think so. I design the deck on home depot website and they order everything for me and delivered it to my house. It says:
Species: Southern Pine
Treatment: Cedar Tone PT
Grade: No.2

On their website it says: "This lumber is color infused with lasting cedar-tone colorant."
This season I'm going to build another deck for my above ground pool using the same wood. But why they will stain it first and then I have to remove the stain? It doesn't make any sense for me to pay for that service and now just remove it.

Okay. I will then. How about the pool deck that I will build this summer? Should I do it at the same time also? Or should I wait till next summer?
