How do you transport your quarts?
    #17822301 - 02/17/13 11:09 PM (11 years, 1 month ago)

So I don't have a dishwasher, and that's probably the best way to clean spawn jars.
I usually walk them all outside, rinse and scrub them in the hose, then haul them back inside. I try to do a large batch all at once.
Combine that with moving them around for colonization, spawning, etc, it adds up to a lot of transporting in my case. (I use 100+ quarts)

So I saw a bunch of 2liter carriers being thrown away at a gas station, talked to the owner who told me to take them, and put them to use.
They've become really handy lately, how do you transport loads of quart jars?


Firstly, I bought a toilet brush for scrubbing all the jars out. It's never been used on a toilet, it's designated for jars only. :lol:


The coolest thing is you can stack them all, and I can transport 24+ quart jars at a time. No more trips back and fourth.

Why don't you wash them in the sink?

My first horrible attempt at a SGFC has been repurposed as a receptical for jars. I'm lucky enough to have a dishwasher, but its nice to take them from the grow room to kitchen in one load. Damm I'm a lazy bastard :smile:

That's what I do, just wash them in the sink, 15-20 at a time, and dry them on towels/the dish rack. I carry them 5 at a time to the sink, which just happens to be about 20 feet away from my work area.

I use a smaller version of a toilet brush and I have devised a system that works for me.

I have over 100 jars, probably around 130, and I can race a dishwasher and win, with cleaner jars in the end.

Just hot water, Dawn dish soap, and my hand mop, cousin it.

Actually I never thought of that until you mentioned it. :ooo:
I feel like a whole new world of options has opened up to me.







Kidding, I don't use the sink because I've tried it, and it takes me 3x as long than using a hose and blasting out most of the particles.
Secondly, because when I wash them in the sink, I soak the entire kitchen, and my wife doesn't like that at all.

My kitchen sink is on the other side of my house. :sad:
Restroom sinks too small.

So technically carrying 24 at a time could really benefit your situation too. It would save you like 17 seconds at least.

I can also carry 48 petris per carrier, and 3 carriers stacked is 144 petris.
I don't use that much agar, but it doesn't change the facts. :awesomenod:

If I went commercial on edibles/medicinals, this would be handy.

Me too:super:
I dont have close to 100 jars yet either. I have 48 so far.
But I also dont do all of my jars at once, I usually have some in different phases, so when I make tuns, I am washing at most a dozen jars at a time. I also have a small bottle brush that I use only for my jars. Some Dawn dish soap and dry them on the drying rack.
When I get more jars, I might change it up but, it works for me at the moment.
TM, I like the bottle carriers:super: good idea.

Same.
I keep my constantly growing collection (somewhere around 300 by now) in 35 gallon totes. One can hold about 100 or so jars at once.
I dry my jars on my wire shelves, works great.
