Bleach works better with cold water because hot water breaks down the active ingredient in bleach, making it significantly less effective; always dilute bleach in cold water to maximize its cleaning power Bleach containing 5.25% sodium hypochlorite should be diluted as a 1:99 ratio with cold water for general cleaning, or 1: 49 for disinfecting contaminated surfaces
Actually you might want to Google that and check the Department Of Health answer Bleach with Hot water works best for sanitation and cleaning because the Hot water starts the release of the ingredients of the bleach It does break it down Faster but if you use it while it’s Still Hot it works A Lot better than Cold water and bleach
Nice to hear normal dudes not playing terrible rap music and wearing stupid hats and swearing every three words and trying to be hip and awesome and getting wasted and insufferably dumb and unnecessarily loud
Thanks!!!❤
Thanks for content like this!!!!
Great knowledge Professor. Thanks for sharing
2 my favorite people ❤️
Thank for the information
Good afternoon great videos
Good video
good stuff
Debacco is THE homie
Rice hulls are great I use them and as they break down they make silica available to the soil to be broke down for plant
Where do you source rice hulls?

DE is absolutely useless once it gets Wet it does nothing it will not work well for Fungus Nats unless you are bottom watering
I get Rice Hulls from Micro Brewer Supply store they sell them for home brewers in 60 LT bags

@@UbiquitousRomp
Light is just a matter of raise, dim, LST or HST
A feeding def isn't that straight forward

overgrow 🌱
I started growing outside and have evolved to indoor. Indoor is way easier. It’s not even close.
