Cleaning + Sanitation

Essential Cleaning Supplies for Grow Rooms

From the moment you step into your grow space, hygiene matters. Disposable shoe covers, automatic shoe cover dispensers, and removers help stop outside contaminants at the door. Clean room body suits with hoods and nitrile gloves in multiple sizes protect both your team and your system while you mix nutrients, handle plants, or perform maintenance.

Our Cleaning + Sanitation collection includes targeted disinfectants, sanitizers, and deodorizers for surfaces, tools, and system components. Use system-safe cleaners for reservoirs, trays, and irrigation hardware to reduce biofilm, slime, and harmful microorganisms. For large indoor gardens, 55-gallon drums of ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, and hydrogen peroxide make deep cleaning and regular sanitation cycles faster and more cost-effective.

How Proper Sanitation Helps Growers

A consistent cleaning routine reduces disease risk, clogged lines, and contaminated nutrient solutions, leading to stronger roots, healthier foliage, and more predictable yields. Clean floors, benches, and equipment also extend the life of your gear and keep your operation looking professional for inspections, staff, and visitors. With the right tools and cleaners, it is easier to maintain a stable, productive growing environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best cleaner for hydroponics?

The best cleaner depends on your system and materials, but most growers use system-safe disinfectants such as hydrogen peroxide, isopropyl alcohol, or specialized hydroponic cleaning solutions. Choose products that are compatible with your equipment, follow the manufacturer’s dilution and contact-time directions, and always rinse thoroughly before refilling with fresh nutrient solution.

How to sanitize a hydroponic system?

Remove plants and drain the system, then rinse to clear debris. Scrub reservoirs, trays, and accessible surfaces with an appropriate cleaner, and circulate a diluted sanitizing solution through pumps, lines, and emitters for the recommended contact time. Rinse everything with clean water, allow components to dry if possible, and only then refill with new nutrient solution. Wearing gloves and shoe covers helps keep the system clean while you work.

How to sanitize a grow room?

Take out all plant material, media, and loose items, then sweep or vacuum floors and corners. Wipe and disinfect floors, walls, benches, door handles, and high-touch surfaces. Clean fans, filters, and external ducting where dust and spores collect. Using suits, gloves, and shoe covers reduces recontamination, and dialing in airflow and humidity afterward helps prevent future mold and mildew.

How to clean a grow tent and equipment?

Unplug devices and remove plants, trays, and accessories. Wipe the tent’s interior walls, seams, zippers, and floor with a mild cleaner, then follow with a compatible disinfectant. Clean trays, pots, poles, and irrigation components separately, focusing on areas with slime or mineral buildup. Wipe fans and fixtures to remove dust, and let everything dry completely before reassembling and restarting your system.
