Cleaning the Grobo

[TheBeardOfGold]

Hi Guys,

I’ve been using Great White and the Reservoir is fully gunked out. Any advise on the best way to clean it please?

I like using a 50/50 mixture of vinegar and hot water.

Cleaning your Grobo

Hi Growers, There are two types of cleaning that you can do to ensure your grow goes smoothly. The 1st is sanitation and the 2nd is sterilization. Sanitation refers to the removal of all of the debris in your unit. It is important to keep your reservoir free of dead leaves, roots and floating things. Quickly remove any spilled nutrients, excess water, or dead plant material you find. Removing dead leaves immediately reduces the risk of having pests or diseases get a foothold in your system…

Paper towel to get all the heavy gunk out before washing with vinegar & hot water! Makes for a better situation when running your drain & fill, dont want that stuff stuck in the lines!

So I basically need to take my plant out, give it a good clean, put plant back in then do the flush? The dry mode etc

Nice one G, you wanna get that off Amazon. Same stuff only £7.99

Ffs didn’t see that was for 4 pack haha Lucky I cancelled it on the rapid.

Mrs just told me Tesco do 568ml distilled vinegar for 40p each. Gonna grab loads of them.

Not bad for 20lr though !

[TheBeardOfGold]

No that’s decent. I just had the Mrs giving it the large because she uses it for cleaning the washing machine out. When she said 40p I said crack on then, you can’t get me some tomorrow

You should already be done with flush and dry before cleaning…
How to clean after harvest…
If you use a bucket or large bowl that’s not see through, to protect roots from light, you can take the entire plant attached to the lid and set it on top of that bucket with a bit of water so you dont dry your roots out while cleaning your reservoir.
How to clean after harvest…
Drain reservoir, then use paper towel to wipe down any gunk, debris, or solid particles before you fill reservoir and add vinegar for a scrub, drain and fill once more to remove setiment through lines and then fill and put everything back!

Perfect, I’ve got a black bucket for it. I was thinking that but because it’s my first time just wasn’t 100%. You guys help so much, thank you
