I have a few garbage bags of used smart pots.
Am I an asshole if I take them to the laundromat and run them through one of their washers?
Belle says if I run them through her Maytags she will powerbomb me like on waterboy.

I knew a kid going to school up in Central that would take his hydroton to the laundry mat late at night :o

I would throw them into a washing machine, fuck it, why not . I know a few people that actually bought a machine a used old pos just to wash those pots out saves yo 5 to 10 dollars each

If I fucked up a washer in a laundromat up here, it would actually make the news. lmao.
The alternative is to hand wash them in a garbage can, but fuck a bunch of that!!

What's the benefit with those smart pots? I've never used them. I just have the hard plastic buckets with saucers under them. They wash up real easily.

from that many to me the best idea was the laundry mat
i do 4 - 6 at home myself wit no problem

since introducedd to smart and air pots i have not used standard plastic pots since
i like them both they promote better drainage and air root pruning which stimulates more rooot growth
which stimulates more plant growth and more bounty
look into them and make a educated decision

To each there own cup of tea , I find the Smart Pots and others like it to be counter productive when growing in soiless mixes as they dried out to fast and collected a lot of salts and minerals in the long run .. I did wash mine though at the laundry mat after a few uses ..

Double front loading washing machines are the way to go , I used Woolite for the wash cycle , Its safe for washing Eagle Feathers and more I learnt .

I don't wash my smart pots too often. I usually just turn them inside out and use a stiff brush to get everything off of them. Sometimes I will spray them with a little water before brushing if it is too dusty.

I have slacked greatly all winter, due to health issues, back problems, and being lazy. I have 2 garbage bags full cuz I'd just buy more
and not worry about them. I flooded the fuck out of the basement again and now I am forced to clean them or throw them out. Hopefully,
like everything else in life, I've learned my lesson the hard way and won't let them pile up again. :roll:

Take them to a car wash with a brick. Put brick inside, blast clean. 10 bags in 1 one dollar clean cycle. Home in 15 minutes and don't have to hang out in a laundromat.

^^^ Belle is taking them to the laundromat when she does her running around tomorrow. I can't beat that one.
