    #10303375 - 05/07/09 04:22 PM (14 years, 11 months ago)

considering alcohol and bleach prety much just kill shit.....
am i beter off layin off of them and stickin to hydrogen peroxide.
or could i dilute alcohol or bleach, if they are toxic, in order to make them tolerable for mycelium and whatnot for the fruiting chamber, and cleaning perlite and shiz?

Just don't put alcohol or bleach on your cakes, simple!  Your FC does not need to be sterile anyway.  Just wash it out with soap and water, it is quite sufficient.

Sure, wash your perlite with them. Even bleach. Just rince them off with clean water afterwards.

Better to ask a simple question than to lose weeks/months of time

You can also bake your perlite in the oven.  In any case it doesn't matter since it is not in direct contact with the cakes.

I would just soak it in a diluted bleach, just add a splash for every five gallons and let it do its thing for about 20 mins.  Drain and rinse.  And like Duggstar said: "...it doesn't matter since it is not in direct contact with the cakes."
