Guys, what would be the best way to disinfect root riot/easy plugs remove all the organic matter and reuse them for cloning? Got bunch of them with mold and with parts of stems sticking out them. Would h2o2 do the job? I would absolutely buy more, but I am located far in a country side, so the order take a while to deliver.

Why risk reusing something with mold that may impact your future grow just to save mere pennies?

Buy new ones, it will be worth the wait

already ordered, but they take like two weeks to deliver , motherplant will grow new ones by that time, and my current flowering plants are ready in a week or so :/

Just take cuts and keep them in a glass of water in the meantime.

I'd just put them straight into soil or coco. Or throw then in a cup of water for now like PJ said.

Using moldy plugs would be a big mistake.

Spit on them. I saw a YouTube grower specialist expert do it. It’s basically proven science.
