Arnold Layne Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 Billibobo - I stop 2 weeks before harvest because I don't want to smoke residues of Buzz-off, because believe me that stuff stinks! And by the way, a simple search would have shown you that "Buzz-off" is entirely organic How to clean and sterilise a GR? Well I had to do it earlier this year to get rid of Pythium root-rot, spider mite and various other horribles. They had gotten out of control over winter, which is when my spine tends to stop me carrying out a lot of daily grow room hygiene. Here's what I did: 1) I dismantled my Flowering Box and burned it. 2) Detsroyed all plant stock completely (this hurt more than anything else ) 3) I dismantled all my kit and sterilised everything with either bleach, Dettol, or alcohol rub. And I mean everything - pots, trays, chains for hanging lamps, lamps, bulbs, filters, fans, inline fans, floor, walls, ceiling, window and frame, room lights, room door and corridor outside of grow room. 4) I repeated step 3) 5) Purchased new Grow Tent for flowering in, and rebuilt Vegging area. 6) Started with seeds over again. I am now an obsessive hygiene freak about the grow, and try and keep everything so squeeky I could eat my brekkie eggs off it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billibobo Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 (edited) Sorry Arnold, I should have checked it out first [LINK REMOVED] and there's not too much info on it. What's the active ingredients? Even an organic product can be toxic! and £79 a litre :!: Doesn't even seem to have a pesticide safety directorate approval either :!: I know that the EC are clamping down on all the products that claim pest control but haven't sought approval as I was learning the other evening reading Directorate EC 97/414 (what a geek eh?) I'm sticking with the product that I promised OWd I wouldn't mention again I paid £23 a litre, which is then diluted down to give 100's of litres of treatment! Impressed by your clean up operation! :bush: Edited September 21, 2005 by Joolz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itsy Posted September 18, 2005 Author Share Posted September 18, 2005 Wow thanks for all the tips guys, y'all rock. Looks like that was my last bio bizz spray, then two (and a half) weeks of water and killing every bugger in there. Ive only got 3 plants (my first grow) so shouldnt be too much bother to wipe em down. Then its a dismantle and burn job for everything. Cheers all, my first buds for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
