Since iso has gone extinct what is the next best thing? Peroxide? :wtfsonic:

Iso for what

For spray bottle:  I use 1/4 tsp bleach to 20oz h20 for sanitation of various things like table tops, bathrooms,  kitchen surfaces and other non-porous surfaces. Spray and let dry.

For sanitizer water in a bucket : 2 tbsp bleach to 32oz h20 for heavy duty like mold, like finishing off monotubs after a soapy clean.

If you need to wipe jars before opening for g2g etc you can spray on your cloth and wipe down let air dry. Good for bacteria.



Use within 24 hours as its efficacy plummets rapidly after then.

"Hydrogen peroxide, in both liquid and as vaporized hydrogen peroxide (VHP), is another chemical sterilizing agent. Hydrogen peroxide is a strong oxidant, which allows it to destroy a wide range of pathogens."

I've seen a few teks use it before, but none of them were on shroomery..
I have not run out of ISO yet so I haven't put much thought into it but I heard to buy Everclear or similar high-proof alcohol and water it down a bit to 70%.

All the TC's I've ever seen talk about peroxide say it has no use at all in mycology.

Maybe some people here have a stockpile of it and we can start trading it on the marketplace :shrug:

I got a handle of something called Club 190 and it’s 94%. All liquor stores around here have been sold out of grain alcohol for about a week less than the ISO shortage. I kept visiting places and one day this spot had gotten a single handle of this high proof stuff so it might take some luck on your part.

Or you can use the bleach/water too I suppose. I just prefer the feel and smell of alcohol if they both work similarly.
