Contaminated Mono
    #26833207 - 07/19/20 08:28 PM (3 years, 6 months ago)

So, it’s been 4 days since first flush was harvested.  Looked in the Mono and it doesn’t look that good.  Definitely contaminated.  Started to get green before flush so put salt on it and it didn’t go any further visually.  Removed salt out of curiosity after harvest and it looked like it was gone.  Being a noob figured put the lid back on and see what happened.  Noticed today it looked kinda weird so removed the substrate and put it in two contractor bags.  After thinking about it for a little, decided to also throw the empty container out. 

Do you think the room is done for future grows now?  Always read how the spores can get out and ruin your grow room.  How true is that is there anyway to clean it.  Was thinking of getting one of those high powered UV lights.  But not sure if that is worth it or not or if they even work.

As long as you have clean spawn you will be ok. Bleach and soap and water.
Key to success is clean spawn.

Thanks!  I was worried cause everyone is always like, “Get it out of your house ASAP,” like it’s a nuclear bomb.  Lol.

Yeah, no need to clean the grow with bleach or anything. Even if you had large patches of mold growing on the walls your tubs are fine as long as the spawn is clean and conditions are right. And reuse that tub! No need to toss it, just wash it out with some soap and water.

I read on some threads that even if you submerge trich in pure bleach it won’t die.  So figured the container was unusable going forward .

Just use dish soap and give itna scrub n rinse.  I dont know about bleach killing or not killing trich but soap sure washes the spores off

QFT. Trich spores stick to the surfaces. Just don't use bleach or abrasives, you don't want to make that nonporous plastic porous nor mess up it's transparency. As far as the grow room goes, I personally don't do anything to mine when I have a tub contam.
