How do you sanitize your trays?

@DonnyGreens 3 года назад

My methods are fast and simple. (I mention them in my video above 😆)

@glory70x 3 года назад

Do you need to do that at all honestly? I use the same trays for 🍅 i never clean the trays

@Donlaurenzo 3 года назад

With diluted bleach but that was a long process. Cleaning first in a tub, sanitizing and rinse under water. Your solution don't need to be rinsed?

@damien6961 3 года назад

Stright in the dishwasher... 🤷‍♂️

@brianlee9700 3 года назад

in 8 hours two e coli bacteria can grow to 16 million....Donny's right to call attention to sanitation but not quite accurate-- if you have not removed soil and biofilms from your trays (via detergent)----and probably more importantly, wash your hands and wear single use gloves when harvesting---since a lot of customers are found via word of mouth a bad reputation via making your customers sick isn't worth it....after cleaning then a no rinse sanitizer is fine....air dry your trays

@johnnylima462 3 года назад

I've planning my growspace, and in my project there's a room just for cleaning trays. I cannot put in the air some particles of sanitizer, cause that particles certainly are going to get the plants, water or something else (I'm a former piercer lately, so I'm little obsessed with sanitation). With a closed room, put them for some minutes in a bath solution, then rinse it off with a pressure machine, and it's done. It's not the faster way to do it, but for me sounds the more secure way to do it, and show this care to my clients, they tend to trust even more on my product and work.

@Floreypottery 2 года назад

If it’s peroxide it’s not gonna hurt the plants many use peroxide vinegar mix to spray some seeds like sunflower to prevent mold. But I feel the cleaner the trays are the better even if they get a 3 step sanitation sink setup

@foamformbeats Год назад

Have you considered putting together a worm bin to recycle the growing medium? Worm castings could be a great addition to the medium, full of nutrient and health promoting humic acid (for both plants and humans). Or you could just sell the castings separately, or use them in your garden.

I remember from the days of sanitizing plastic baby containers/cups it was advised Not to scrub plastic with a brush or anything abrasive, as the scratches create even more places for bacteria etc. to attach and hide oo on your plastic. So I use a cloth or sponge on plastic. Nothing scratchy

@tonylapiana8642 3 года назад

Thank you as always for the great advice. We started our Microgreens business 7 months ago and we are up to about 40-50 trays a week now and honestly cleaning trays is one of the most time consuming things we do using the typical dump, rinse, soak in bleach water and then rinse again. I always felt this was over kill but we just followed how we were taught. Can’t wait to try this method thanks again

@jimjam36695 3 года назад

40-50 trays is good progress. How do you sell your microgreens?

@erichgallardo9772 2 года назад

Hi Donny, since you asked about selling , the Philippine microgreens market is basically new. I was successful in growing microgreens outside in a shaded area. I havent tried selling, but i also dont know how. It seems i have to develop a market for it. I plan to sell it to people who are health conscious like people doing keto or to people that needed extra nutrition like people with cancer. How do i develop such a new market here ?

@robertguay3773 Год назад

try chlorine dioxide instead of bleach you just put 1 tab into the sink and drop the trays in. you can drink the water with the chlorine dioxide in it with out any health problems and it kills more bacteria then bleach. it rinses easily and even if you watered the plants with that water it wouldn't hurt them.

@matthewfuller6060 2 года назад

Hi Donny. Starting a 1 rack farm over next week or so. I appreciate you and your content. Question. Are you holding one tray or two trays when sanitizing with the Zerotol spray? I heard you say tray set so I am thinking 2 trays. Just as they were when growing. Thank you again.

@michaelfritz403 3 года назад

hey donny .... how long do you keep your fans running in the farm? there are some who recommend running this 24/7? thank you and your videos are great

@paultamsin3951 3 года назад

Hi Donny, Right now I use a brush and water to clear off both sides of all trays, then I dip them in a bleach/water mix to sanitize, very boring and time consuming. I'm small scale, doing maybe 40 trays every other week in the winter months, 60 trays a week in prime time farmer's market months. Your method seems like a nice solution. Once a month I'll plan to scrub them down though. Thanks for the info. Stay healty.

@DonnyGreens 3 года назад

No problem thanks for watching and for commenting! You stay healthy as well. Hopefully the methods I use will help as you scale and have to take care of more trays!

I wash out the trays with water then spray and soak 15min in a water mixed with hydrogen peroxide! I’m new so still finding the best process for me as an apartment small grower! For now!

@Toroloco777 3 года назад

There are some growers that dump out the coco coir brush off the roots and replant in the same tray the same day that have never had any issues for years. So I see how all this overkill is really unnecessary but to each their own.

@waynemasters8673 Год назад

No. It's feedback from the plants and the customers.

@valholla4499 3 года назад

I had been spraying my trays with water before sanitizing to remove all the soil and roots stuck on there after pulling off the spent matter. Since it is winter, I've been cleaning them indoors. At first I tried washing in the kitchen sink, which was super messy, and then I moved to using a pressure sprayer tank in the basement over a big wash tray I would then dump in my basement floor drain. I didn't know it was okay to leave some of the soil on there. Maybe I will try it this way.

@shooterscorner7500 3 года назад

where did you get the measuring tool to measure the zerotol with to get 20 mil liters?

@OLENFARM 3 года назад

I really want to know if you rinse with water after spray. Thank you for your video. I took the class with the you in the bonus videos :-)

@brigittemadrid3739 3 года назад

I've been soaking them in bleach water in a storage bin for about 20 minutes then wipe them down and rinse them in hot water. It's quite time consuming, but that's the only way I've found to remove the root systems. Your comment about outdoor farming is correct for sure. However I fear that the more fragile crops like lettuce mix and brassicas are more susceptible to mold in my grow space, I just want to be sure to grow healthy products.

@DonnyGreens 3 года назад

Definitely smart thinking! Thanks so much for your comment. This definitely sounds a bit time consuming, hopefully my tactics will help a bit, maybe you can incorporate a ix of the two methods? When i get roots sticking (sunflowers), I remove them simply by running my finger down the grooves with a paper towel when dumping initially. Hope this helps!

@brigittemadrid3739 3 года назад

@@DonnyGreens thanks Donny! That's a good idea wiping trays after harvest with a paper towel. I'll give that a shot in my process as well as the hydrogen peroxide process.

@TomTheAtlantaGuy Год назад

What is the specific concentrate that is being added to create the sanitizing solution. (no link visible)? Thx

@v1mu 3 года назад

From a cleaner's perspective - sanitizers are more effective when dirt and debris have been cleaned off (with soap and water). Personally, I prefer to do both for my own peace of mind, and do not find it time consuming.

@rodneycastaldi7013 Год назад

Hey Donny, when I click on your link for Zerotol 2.0, the product Zerotol HC pops up. Has the product name changed, or did they swap the product out on the link that used to be 2.0? If you do use HC, does it still meet the USDA Organic standards? Oh, and thank you so much for your videos.

@bryanmilne 3 года назад

Donny what material is the flooring in your grow room? Looks like it might be plywood but I'm not sure. Do you have drainage features built into the floor somewhere? Whatever it is, how are you liking it and would you recomend this or a different route for someone starting out? Did you build this structure for your business, or was it pre-existing? Looks like it used to be a barn or garage/carriage house of some sort that's been repurposed. I'd love to see you put out a video about your space and what modifications you did to it when you moved in (assuming it was pre-existing).

After spraying I put the trays in a sealed closet I pump ozone into. Kills everything, mold & yeast spores, viruses & bacteria. You could even just drape a super rack with plastic and pump ozone into it. My indoor farm also have positive pressure HEPA filtration for good measure. I also do mycology, ferments and brewing so I'm nuts for clean rooms. I use the mushrooms, ferment, & mead to generate CO2 as a profit stream rather than paying for CO2.

Water spritzing, diluted hydrogen peroxide solution, but your main concern is having proper ventilation and circulation. Temperature is a big contributor. Air that isn’t constantly moving is going to give you mold every time.

As the dollar begins its collapse and global currencies are replaced with CBDC’s all of a sudden the masses will understand the importance of decentralised crypto currencies. Sadly before the demand increases people need to realise the truth about why this pandemic was created and the negative aspects of the new monetary system that is being brought in globally as a result.

@richstone2627 3 года назад

I believe in thoroughly cleaning the trays. I make sure all soil, roots and debris are removed from trays. Trays are then washed, rinsed and sanitized in a three compartment stainless steel sink which was cleaned and sanitized. I wear gloves, bouffant cap, disposable paper suit, basically a clean room set-up. The trays dry on a clean and sanitized NSF rack like yours. Food safety is of the utmost importance. Every farmer should take a food safety course and familiarize themselves with GAP etc. It only takes one sick customer to ruin your business. I don't see it as a waste of time, people's health and possibly lives are on the line.

you can't sanitize a dirty surface. If there is soil still on the trays you are wasting your time.

Sanitizer literally cannot work on a dirty surface. This video is dissapointing and potentially harmful. If you clean them first, then yes... great process. Indoor gardening and outdoor is a completely different ballgame.
