Growing Room Cleaning and Maintenance: Daily

This checklist will help you keep your grow room clean, tidy, and sanitised and will help you prevent pests, diseases, and mould from having their way with your cannabis plants.

DAILY MAINTENANCE FOR GROW ROOMS

Closely Inspect Plants

Take a close look at plants every day for signs of insects or mold. Cannabis crops are susceptible to spider mites, and the room’s humidity encourages powdery mildew growth. Treat plants as needed with acaricides and fungicides.

Carefully Maintain Their Condition

Remove dead leaves, dirt and dust from pots, trays and tables. Dispose of organic debris outside of the grow room to minimize chances of cross-contamination from decomposing plant materials.

Quickly Clean Up Spills

Take care of spills immediately. Otherwise, residual moisture impacts the room’s humidity balance and encourages fungal growth. It can also lead to hidden mold problems in drywall, floors and and ceiling materials.

Practice Good Housekeeping

Sweep and dust every day. This reduces plant pollen and other tiny particles that compromise air quality important to a healthy crop. It also eases the work of your air filtering systems.
