Tip of advise....material that can be washed, pack it into garbage bags and throw it in the laundry while you're cleaning the walls....its a pain to get the ceiling.

Also, there are U.V air purifiers. I've yet to try one but they use some pretty nifty technology, as the air goes into the intake there is a U.V light that zaps it of spores/bacteria before reaching the hepa, so you know its 100% clean...I believe it states it cutts down mold/bacteria in the air to 99.9% ....it's a compact design for households but hospitals use larger models. they're fairly inexpensive. About $250....

Ya thats way out of my price range right now ... maybe in the future though.

I do have a hepa in the room running, but has an old ass filter on it it probably needs changed for sure.

I think for now Ill just do the clean up, then get a new filter for my hepa unit. The double charcoal/hepa combo sounds interesting though..

What kind of bleach/water ratio did you use?

Sounds like you have a trich infestation in your grow room, I too recently had undergone months of frustration due to trich infestation occurring about 4-7 days after giving fully colonized tubs FAE...

My grow room has no windows and I leave it fairly dark, the one day after the fifth monotub got hit with green I decided to bring in a bright light and oh man...wish I had taken pictures. My grow room walls are white, when I put light on them they were actually pigmented green thats how bad this infestation was....even the air smelled like trich....

Anyways, long story short. Use a strong bleach/water solution and wipe down every inch of your grow rooms walls, spray the borders with clorox, vacuum and steam clean any carpeted material in the room and finally dump a can of oust into the room. I also installed a dual hepa/charcoal filter combo after I did mine and things have been great ever since. But yea, you defiantly have some trich growing somewhere.




In other words, get my grandmother to clean the room. Man every time I visit her I swear I could chuck a few cakes right on the floor it won't contaminate.:rolleyes:.

Enough bleach in the water that it dissolved the sponge over night....

I just loaded it up and made a very strong bleach/water concentration, probably more bleach then water.
