I was wondering what the ratio of hydrogen peroxide baking soda and lemon juice you put in that 1 bucket
Lol, understand that I mixed a little of both of the washing “recipes” I had gathered from the internet. I figured it can’t hurt and the buds just went in jars last night, and they look and smell great. One recipe calls for a cup of Peroxide in 5 gals of water. I added that much, the same in lemon juice and about half a cup of soda. Next time I may just do the peroxide, although the lemon juice gives the solution a nice smell.
I’ve tried a couple different scenarios
-
washing it in peroxide for 2 minutes, then washing with (1/4 cup baking soda+1/4cup lemon juice)[probably wasn’t enough] 2 minutes.
I had noticed the smell Was still about as strong as before dipping. Not much came off plants. -
Trying again with time longer 3 to 5 minutes Smell dissipated probably 30 to 50%
More stuff Was coming off.
Now I’m about to try your method with all 3 combined
About 20 oz of hydrogen peroxide 3/4 cup baking soda Only had about 4 tablespoons of lemon juice
5 gal buckets
First time I washed I used Baking soda and lemon juice only, and from real lemons to boot, so I skimped on that as well, but all I had on hand. I remember all the junk floating in that bucket after the fact, so I was pleased… Let us know hoe you liked it.
I just washed my plants with five gallons of water and 16 oz hydrogen peroxide, then a water rinse. It seemed to do a good job, lots of stuff in the first wash.
I tried to cut short enough to dunk the whole stem, then dipped them a couple of times with a gentle swish. Anecdotally, I smoked some before and after and they both definitely got me off.
Shouldn’t I use a third bucket as the second bucket cleans most off lol but I figure I should dump in a 3rd bucket to really clean
I found these since I posted that … I think separating the stuff like the first picture shows is the better way to go but that’s just my opinion I’m pretty sure either way will work
I wanted to add to be gentle when you are washing you don’t want to beat the buds on the sides n bottom it will knock off trichomes… and I run a fan directly on the buds until they stop dripping
