Cleaning Your Grow Bag

Over time, top-watering can cause mineral deposits and soil to accumulate on the outside of the bag as the water drains into the saucer. While this residue may affect the appearance of the grow bag, the health of the plant and the performance of the grow bag are unaffected. Bottom-watering also prevents this issues.

Good news, this residue can easily removed!

Step 1

Empty grow bag turned upside down with a spade being used to remove excess dirt from the bag.

Step 2

Use hot water to loosen and rinse off debris from the grow bag.

Step 3

Apply dish detergent around the outside of the grow bag, ensuring full coverage.

Step 4

Fold the bag and rub the outside surfaces against each other until fully lathered with soap.

Step 5

Use hot water to rinse off all the dish detergent from the bag.

Step 6

Fold the bag and gently squeeze it to remove water. Do not twist.

(Repeat Steps 5 & 6 until no more soap remains in the bag.)

Step 7

Place the bag upside down in the sink to allow any remaining soapy water to drain.

Step 8

Replant your plant in the grow bag while it is still damp to help it retain its shape.
